by Katherine Center.
Sometimes life isn’t fair, especially when you’re a woman trying to thrive in a male-dominated occupation. You go above and beyond. You prove yourself. You don’t date coworkers. Your only hope is to find one person you can count on.
This is the world Cassie Hanwell landed in when started her new job in Boston as a firefighter. She really didn’t have a choice. Her estranged mother suddenly asked her to move halfway across the country—from Texas to Massachusetts. And then an unfortunate run-in with a shady town councilman cost her not only a spot in the Austin Fire Department but a promotion to lieutenant as well.
The new firehouse crew wasn’t thrilled to have a woman on the team, but Cassie was determined to earn their respect. She went above and beyond. She proved herself. She didn’t date coworkers. And she found one person she could count on. The handsome rookie, Owen. Who was kind. Likeable. Supportive. Kissable. And off limits. Keeping their friendship strictly professional was a challenge she couldn’t afford to lose. Her job was at stake. Her career. Everything she had worked for. She didn’t need love, especially if it meant falling for the rookie.
Or did she?
Another winner by Katherine Center. This book was truly a joy to read.
