Things You Save in a Fire is a beautifully poignant read that no one should miss! Katherine Center is a new-to-me author that I'm kicking myself for not discovering sooner.
This book focuses on Cassie Hanwell and her love of firefighting. She has a past full of tragedy that she's never discussed with anyone, which has also kept her from dating as well.
Despite everything, she's determined to be the best firefighter she can be, so when that chance is threatened after an encounter with her past, Cassie must transfer stations and start all over.
The timing is perfect, as her mother calls with a desperate plea for her help. Their estranged relationship is awkward, mainly due to poor communication and resentment. When certain things come to light, it puts the past and present in a whole new perspective.
Still reeling from life changing news, Cassie must also deal with a stalker who wants her out of the firehouse and possibly dead. She also has growing feelings for the rookie, which is not only against the rules, but something Cassie never thought she'd be able to feel after her past.
Throughout the book, you get to experience her personal growth during the many trials she faces. I found myself glued to each page - demanding answers, justice, and closure.
This is definitely one that I'm immediately adding to my bookshelf and recommending to anyone that'll listen! I can't wait to dive into How to Walk Away after finishing this phenomenal book.

Summary:
Cassie Hanwell was born for emergencies. As one of the only female firefighters in her Texas firehouse, she's seen her fair share of them, and she's excellent at dealing with other people's tragedies. But when her estranged and ailing mother asks her to uproot her life and move to Boston, it's an emergency of a kind Cassie never anticipated.
The tough, old-school Boston firehouse is as different from Cassie's old job as it could possibly be. Hazing, a lack of funding, and poor facilities mean that the firemen aren't exactly thrilled to have a "lady" on the crew, even one as competent and smart as Cassie. Except for the handsome rookie, who doesn't seem to mind having Cassie around. But she can't think about that. Because she doesn't fall in love. And because of the advice her old captain gave her: don't date firefighters. Cassie can feel her resolve slipping...but will she jeopardize her place in career where she's worked so hard to be taken seriously?
