"Heart-warming but also hard-hitting true story of a young woman in the 80's who has her heart set on a career in the Fire Service when it was considered mainly a "man’s world". Such an enjoyable read, I couldn't put it down, this book made me want to cheer, laugh out loud, and also brought a tear to my eye. Thank you, Jo, for taking me with you on your journey, I loved every moment!"





​​"Bought your book for my 15 year old daughter. I would just like to tell you she read it cover to cover yesterday- really inspired by your story. She is now considering one of the emergency services as a career"

Josephine Reynolds entered the male-dominated world of firefighting and proved to everyone that she was just as capable as them. Despite the often toxic culture, she overcame this to become a respected member of the team. Josephine paved the way for females in the fire service and should be justly proud of her achievements. This book is an excellent record of her fire service adventure and is a first-class read.” 
​Thank you Duncan J White – Group Editor, MDM Publishing – Publishers of International Fire Fighter Magazine

​ ​"Diving head first into a career in the last bastion of masculinity, firefighting. The world back in a Thatcher led England in 1983 was much smaller and for a woman entering the fire service much tougher."
