Personally tough for me at a lot of times, deals with heavy stuff, but also made me laugh and gasp. Love this author

YES! Women!

Just seeming to be a straightforward feminist/romance book at first, it really turned into something special right around the last 80 pages and I felt it all.

Love and forgiveness is hard, but growing along with Cassie through the story, you feel empowered right along with her. All women (and yes, men too) should read this. It was sweet and powerful and pulls you right in.

I want to be that kind of person too, Cassie.

I just didn't like any of the characters.  Everyone was incredibly one dimensional; they were their nicknames.  The resolution felt disconnected and like an attempt to wrap things up with shiny happy thoughts only.  I just didn't like it.

I had to read this book because of the female firefighter but I misunderstood and thought it was going to be a memoir. It had that stupid unrealistic “I am the best” writing style, but nevertheless I have to say I enjoyed it. There was inaccuracies but who cares?
