Published: September 22, 2015
In the small, sleepy Southern town of Paradise, not everything is as it seems. Nestled in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, the tiny country town seems like it would be the perfect spot to raise a family, build a life and enjoy living in what most natives call ‘God’s Country’. What no one seems to realize is that there are secrets hiding in the families of this quaint little community – especially the McKinnon clan.
And everyone knows, in a family, secrets never stay secret for long.
“Another Hit, if you love romance and action this book is for you. As a Wife of a U.S.Marine veteran I highly recommend this book. LOVE LOVED IT. I ALWAYS LOVE THIS AMAZING AUTHOR!!!” ~ Cain’s Salvation from an Amazon Reviewer
“To wrap this up before I get to chatty... this was 153 (Kindle version) pages long and I'm fairly certain if I was left alone with no interruptions I would have finished this in one afternoon. The pacing if ideal, the tale was effortless to read, and the anxiety build up to the climax was superb! Can't wait to find out who the next book is about!” ~ Cain’s Salvation from Rough Draft Book Blog
“LOVED this book! LOVED the first book and this one was even better! Jake was this bad-ass that flew into town like he was going to turn everything upside down. It was so good to see what a good woman could finally do to him. A man that looked to have no heart at all…..
This series is one to read! One to put on your TBR and to continue to follow.. Sarah is an amazing author! And I am so glad I had a chance to read this!! Thank you Sarah! <3 I cannot wait to read the next book in this series!” ~ Hard as Stone from Book Worms
“So I finished reading Hard as Stone yesterday and I have to say... Wow! Just wow! I thought Cain's Salvation was good, but the McKinnon sisters and their men kept me on the edge of my seat and my face shoved in my kindle for two days. I absolutely love this series and I can't WAIT for Ready, Willing, and Abel….” ~Hard as Stone from Amazon Reviewer

Favorite Quotes:
Cain’s Salvation
“Hearing Honor
curse was sort of like watching Santa smoke weed. It was just wrong.”
“He’d lost so
much weight that not even the beer he drank like it was the fifth food group
had made a dent.”
“He guessed
she was plotting fifty ways to kill him and make it look like an accident. That’s how this sister worked. She was vengeful. Oh, she was syrupy sweet on the outside, but
Patience had a core of pure fire.”
“Because I
swear by everything that I hold dear, there’s gonna be either a wedding or a
funeral. Since I’m a generous Christian
woman, I’ll let you decide which one you want.”
Hard as Stone:
“Have you seen the ass on that man? You
could bounce a quarter off him and make yourself fifty cents!”
“Jacob Stone was YUMMY with extra emphasis place
on the YUM. Completely freaking edible, her libido sang joyously as
her girly parts did a happy little dance beneath her dress.”
“Still spry at 71, her aunt could still do many
things, but coordinating an outfit wasn’t among them. Eying the old
woman’s orange skirt and purple shirt only reinforced what she already
knew. If she wasn’t careful, she was gonna walk out of this room
dressed like a clown on crack.”
“That woman could remove a man’s jewels with a
butter knife and a can-do attitude.”
My Review:
Cain’s Salvation is an excellent second chance romance
that is smokin’ hot, contemporary, and right on point with the current
difficulties our returning troops are encountering with PTSD. Both stories are well written, steamy, and
poignant. I could not put them down and
finished them in a day. Having grown up
in a small town, these people seemed familiar and real to me. And while I could do without having her
meddlesome and bossy sisters in my life, I do wish I had an Auntie Orla, she
sounds like fun. Hard as Stone continued from Cain’s
Salvation and was much the same but even more… more intense, more back stories,
more family history, more sex, more passion, more humor, more of everything -
and all so very good! Holy hotness! I cannot wait to see what they do with Abel.

Neither is ever very far from a tall glass of sweet iced tea, their dog-eared copies of Gone With the Wind, or their Steel Magnolias DVDs!
