Quiet Ember
San Diego Fire Chief Dutch Lapp has run into hot water on her latest rescue mission.
She’s transferred to a local fire camp for some much-needed R&R, but inevitably finds herself back in the hot seat. This time in the form of Violet Hastings, a quiet and contemplative inmate working at the camp. Violet is trapped in a life she is desperate to escape, which Dutch can relate to all too well.
A slow burn starts to ignite when the two meet, as Dutch introduces Violet to a world completely different to anything she’s ever known.

2.5 Stars. A second installment in a series, with a new couple at the forefront. Kindle Unlimited.
I really enjoyed the first installment, Controlled Burn, it was deeply emotional and unique in it's story. This one was not as satisfying - at all.
I think the author tried to squeeze far too much in, which means it was a struggle to give everything and everyone the right attention needed to form fully rounded characters, backstories and then an ultimate connection between the two main women.
Fire Chief Rebecca "Dutch" Lapp is former Amish, and also former Navy. We get a fair bit of history & insight for her, she's a tough, caring and hot butch woman, who had injured her back in a fire-fighting incident. She is sent to work at a camp where certain prison inmates are partnering with San Diego Fire Department to learn the ropes and assist the department where they can. She also has an awful girlfriend she needs to dump. - This unfortunately made her look spineless and shallow.
There she meets Violet. A plus sized woman who is very 'down' on herself and her weight. She's very smart, but naïve and has struggled with weight her whole life and has received a lot of abuse and bullying for it, and constantly makes jokes about herself and her fatness. I related to this, as a fat woman myself. You make jokes to 'get in' before anyone else can in the hopes that they will laugh WITH you, not AT you. But this obviously never works.
"Dutch" takes an interest in Violet, and helps get her training and feeling more confident and positive about her body. The goal is never for weight loss, but for strength and endurance, so she can complete the job training to hopefully become a firefighter, herself. I appreciated this aspect and how body positive Rebecca/Dutch was towards Violet and challenged her negative thinking.
Violet also has a more convoluted past with a deadbeat husband, and a child, and a negging mother. We see how she ended up in prison, and feels ashamed for it. Also her desires for more in the future. The hardest part to read was her experiences she had with other inmates who essentially raped her and the infirmary staff and corrections officers who turned a blind eye. This was a bit too heavy, and yet never treated as such. Never fully realized or dealt with, in my mind. I feel like if you are going to put that kind of storyline into a book - you need to really honour it and deal with it, in appropriate ways and I don't believe it ever did.
Obviously I understand in real life, often people like Violet may well not get any type of honour or true healing in the aftermath of sexual assault - but to be so specific as the author was - and not to address it appropriately, just made me cringe too much in how unsatisfyingly it was handled, and probably knocked a good star or more off overall.
As I said at the beginning I think the author put far too much on the characters and backstories and issues they had to deal with. Violet didn't need anymore to deal with than she already had with being an inmate working off her debt to society, training her body and mind away from her fat-shaming, and dealing with a negative mother figure and deadbeat husband and a child to look after. Plus the blossoming friendship and romance with Dutch. The added layer of assault, was too much, and as I said never seemed to actually affect her. So what was the point of putting it in?
There was also far too much backstory for each woman's sexual and relationship pasts, added in at odd times via flashbacks. Did I really need to know about Violets first time having sex, but only after she had returned home from the camp and her training? If she had some sort of 'new insight' into the scenario, then I can see the usefulness of it - but as it stood so many of these types of nuggets were thrown into the story for no good reason. It was bizarre.
The relationship itself is slow burn, but entirely unromantic in my mind. They are more like good friends, and it literally takes until 95% in and literal minutes left in the book for them to even kiss and discuss dating. It felt robotic and forced.
I enjoyed seeing Kori and Hunter again from book 1 - but it was very few and far between. The drama is mostly with Kori's daughter being a brat about her parents divorce, and it never did seem to resolve.
So unfortunately I wasn't impressed with this read, despite really loving the first. I'm not sure if I will try any further installments - guess I'll wait and see what other reviewers say first, before trying. As always try it for yourself on KU.

Initially complicated as two different relationships, past lives of the four main characters intermingled, going back and then back to present day and I thought after 20% I was losing it, but really worth keeping going. Love the style of SDH's writing. Recommended.

I liked it
I was a little confused because I thought this story would be about the two characters the last book ended on but it's not. This one is about Violet and Dutch with spatters of Kori and Hunter.
While Dutch and Violet's story was cute I found more drawn to the Kori/Hunter situation and really wanted to read more about them just because there was bit more drama, not that I like unnecessary drama but it was interesting. As far as Dutch/Violet go it was cute. There was no real drama surrounding, almost felt as if it was being avoided. Overall, a nice addition to the series but I still wanna know about the two at the end of book one.

3 Stars - Slooooooooooooooooooooooooow burn. Passion level 0.
Book 1 of this series just pulled the emotions out of me and put me through the ringer and I loved it. This book is super slow burn about two nice people, one an generous mellow butch fire chief and the other a inmate working at a fire camp. The inmate is also a very nice person, just made some mistakes that she is doing her time for. She also suffers from extremely negative body image issues.
The two MCs become really good friends as the Chief helps the inmate overcome her negative self image and go for what she want (to become a firefighter). The heat level is low, but I keep reading because the potential was there and I am big fan of the slow burn. However, the protential never came to any kind of fruition. It was like in the end, they were still just really good friends that decided to date and say "I love you" but there was, at least for me, minimal passion involved. The heat-o-meter never moved off zero.
There was a bit of a side story with the couple from the first book and it was nice to visit with them a bit more.

I hope there's more, is my first thought. I love the series Sherryl Hancock creates and this is no exception. Another slow burn, but shows growth in the relationship. Please let there be more to the series.

Heartwarming!
This is the second book in the CalFire Series and it was a little different. As in that it didn’t have the heart wrenching pulling at your heart scenes. Dutch and Violet are two completely different personalities. One is a Chief Firefighter and the other is a inmate. In Sherryl Hancock style we learn about Dutch and Violet present day and flashbacks to what made them. It really was a good heartwarming story with a little sadness. Hopefully there will be more of The series especially Kori and Hunter. The storyline for them in this book was smaller but still incomplete.

I read this back to back with Controlled Burn without reading the synopsis so was quite confused it was about Dutch, not Dax who was the prominent character in the epilogue of book 1. Once I settled in and quit looking for Dax to pop up I enjoyed it.
Violet got on my nerves a bit, but I would guess she portrayed the self esteem and defenses of of a “fat girl” realistically. I wasn’t quite sure how it would all end until we got there which is a bit more like a novel than romance, which I liked.

Quite Burn
Wonderful series about strong women who make California a safer place to live. “Dutch” Rebecca Ladd was raised Amish; however she knew she would leave and never go back. After becoming a fire fighter in the Navy she ends up in San Diego as a Fire Captain with CalFire. Violet is an inmate at the training camp for fire fighter apprentice. Their story is one of strength, family and love.
Happy to catch up on Hunter and Kori and their continued stories.
Can’t wait for more.

I wanted to love this book but there were many times I felt the story was just dragging on and on. The chapters were painfully too long and there were so many flashbacks. I understand the flashbacks were to give us insight about the character's past, but it got to the point where another flashback would pop up and found myself rolling my eyes. I just wanted to stay in the present and keep the story flowing forward. I was also shockingly surprised over how many grammatical mistakes there were in this book. Like, scary amount. This book was published with a publisher which means the book should have had a pro editor working on it. Every single chapter had multiple grammar mistakes, the kind of mistakes a novice would point out. The characters themselves were okay. I found the constant bashing of ones self over their weight became monotonous. We get it, she suffered from low self-esteem, but after a while, it's like, STOP! and open your eyes and take a look around. JFC.
All in all, it was okay, but not my favorite from this author. And where the Hell was Dax? We were introduced to her at the end of the first book, making us believe that the next book (this one) was going to be about her, but there was no Dax. I felt played.

Stereotypes Much?
The author's pathetic attempt to write in characters of color falls flat on it face. We jump from the helpless white victim in prison to a description of Azalea being dressed like a literal clown circa 1978. Not a single Black woman walking the face of this earth would wear a durag out on a date. Anyone that has knowledge of Black women would know this. It's highly disappointing that that this author would write this stereotype into a story. Can Black people not be reduced down to "durags"? Is that too much to ask for?

This book was a slow burner and when I say slow, I mean super slow. It was like 97% of the book was them working together and getting to know each other slowly and then the last 3% of it was Violet being like oh wow, I love her. You could tell the attraction was there from the start, on Violets side anyway, we never really got to see much from Dutch from an emotional POV so it seemed quite abrupt for her to feel the same way at the end.
Also, the flashbacks, while informative to see how Dutch grew up, seemed very pointless at times. There was one in particular with Violet when she was younger (you’ll know when you get to it) where when it finished, I was like okay… how did that bring any value to this book?
As much as I adore Kori and Hunter, their scenes were absolutely useless. They went nowhere so what was even the point in them? Sure it was nice to see where they were and how they were doing but it was a completely different book in a completely different setting so why did we have random scenes of them that seemingly came out of nowhere and went nowhere? Now if a separate book was made about them as a sequel then it would make sense but I would’ve rather this book focused solely on Dutch and Violet without the random scenes of Kori and Hunter thrown in.
Overall, it was okay. Not the worst book I’ve ever read but it’s definitely not close to being the best either. It sits firmly in the middle of the pack to the point where if I give it a few months, I will more than likely forget about it.

This is a re-read for me. The author always delivers great characters, good plot and a really pleasurable reading experience. I loved all the characters in this one! Violet has made mistakes but as we learn more about her, the mistakes make sense. So glad she can change her life. Dutch is awesome and so solid and trustworthy. It's also nice to be able to follow some familiar characters. Such a great read!

Fire and love in California
This is a great story with a well described context. I found the main characters strongly defined and read it all in one day. I am sure readers will also enjoy it. Well done Sherryl Hancock. I am looking forward to the next book, though I mainly go for unlimited editions.

Sweet story. Sherry Hancock is a prolific author who writes stories of life and love . She doesn't sugar coat it, she develops characters who are real, with real life issues and real life problems. And it was nice to get small glimpses of characters from other series she's written. Well done!

Excellent.
Great follow up. From Calfire. Enjoyed meeting characters from first book. The for fighting explanations was amazing. Here in Scotland we thankfully do not get these real serious problems so very good writing took you to the heart of that. Liked all the characters hope some of the new characters have set up for a follow up. Highly recommend..

This was probably my favorite read out of all of Sherry Hancok's books. Shave enjoyed reading all of them buy this touched me in a very special way. I loved the way Dutch inspired and encouraged Violet. She was kind and real and just a bit vulnerable herself. Looking forward the next book.

I did enjoy the main characters, they aren’t MCs you see very often, and I really liked getting their backstory in snippets. I was also really glad to get to “check in” on Hunter and Kori. I’d probably give this book 4 stars with a little more editing. Also, there is an assault scene that might deserve a trigger warning.
February 9, 2022
Not bad
It was alright. The plot was decent but I'm not sure I'd call it a romance as any such things take place in the last few pages. Also it kept going to other characters but Hunter / Samantha / Kori 's storyline didn't really go anywhere so I'm really not sure why it was included

So and so
It is a nice story but unfortunately it is not for me at least as good as the first book. The characters, the chemistry, the whole story were a bit off. I am sorry to say but I didn’t enjoy it as much as the first book even though it can be read without the reading of the first, as a stand-alone.

Despite the two leads only becoming actually involved in the very last pages of the book, I didn't feel myself missing the romance that much - I guess you could say it's a slow burn (ba dum tss). I was hooked regardless by how interesting Dutch and Violet were, and especially the former's past. The writing and grammar weren't great, but overall, I enjoyed it far more than I thought it would.

Okay so this is the second book in the series and it is good we get to know what had happened after the end of the first book but I wish those parts where in the actual first book because this one introduces too many other characters and I wish it focused more on the mains with a little more connection.For a free book tho it was enjoyable and I am glad I read it.

I love both stories and all the characters, including those not so great one... but I guess those are TBE characters that make us find our way to our true selves. I was glad to also up on few other characters that I had forgotten.
Looking forward to another book in this series.

Another great book in this Series
I love the way Sherryl writes such strong female characters.
This new series is no exception, we are introduced to 2 new main characters,
They are so well described I can picture them.

This is a very good series. I really enjoyed the WEHO series and this one is just as good. The characters are very interesting and likable. I hope there are more books in this series. Thanks for another winner

Great book
I thought it was great that even tho Violet was in jail, she did everything she could to make herself better. I liked that when she got out, Dutch helped her pass a test and they fell in love.

Fantastic!
Just like the I did with the WeHo series, i waited impatiently for the next one in the CalFire series. I definitely hope there is more about Dutch & Violet in upcoming books. I love the beautiful and loving couples in the stories.

incomplete storyline
I’m still trying to figure out the San Francisco angle in this story. There also were typos & grammatical error on almost every page. That was annoying. The underlying love story was good though!

Absolutely loved this second book. The characters form the first book are there (adore Kori and Hunter) and we meet new people. If you like a slow burn (ha Quiet Ember) you will love the story. May have to purchase them both even though they are on kindle unlimited.

Another reason why...
I love your books. I really like all of the characters and how you bring in the characters from your other books. I think you gave us a few more characters for future CalFire books in this one. I hope that you do a book 3.
