I enjoyed the pacing and the characters in this book! It was fun to see the different sides of all the characters and see how they change throughout the book. This book focuses a TON on the firefighter side of things, so there's a lot of language specific to that role that gets confusing. You can tell it was written by someone with experience as a firefighter because while they try to explain it as best they can, I don't think it's something that can be easily understood without experiencing it firsthand. Also, while the plots tied together at the end, they seemed a bit disjointed and the "villain" felt like they were added in in a rush at the last minute.
