To make matters even worse, Cassie learns the Lillian fire station doesn’t want a female firefighter. As fate would have it, Cassie lands a job with an all-male fire station in Lillian, Massachusetts. However, that might change as Cassie is faced with moving to Massachusetts, to help out her ailing mother. With Captain Harris, an African-American female, in charge at the progressive Austin fire station, the amount of flack that Cassie might be subjected to from male counterparts, is virtually non-existent. And when it comes to her mother, Cassie has no forgiveness in her heart. Cassie’s coping mechanism seems to be the development of a stoic and tough exterior. Everyone deals with adversity in their own way. In addition, it soon becomes clear, Cassie is suffering the memory of an unspeakable occurrence in her past, the nature of which we have yet to learn. Her mother, Diana, left Cassie and her dad on the evening of Cassie’s sixteenth birthday. While twenty-six year old, Cassie is tough, strong and determined, she is also carrying a couple of gigantic emotional scars. At fire station eleven in Austin, Texas, Cassie can pretty much do everything the men firefighters can do…and sometimes even better. Cassie is an intelligent and capable young woman following her dream to be successful at what she loves. In this “good for the soul” story, fans of How To Walk Away will fall in love with female firefighter, Cassie Hanwell.
