I read a book about a month ago along the same lines of this one and I thought it was going to be pretty difficult to get another hit on my hands so soon, such is the law of the literary gods I've come to find...I was mistaken. Badly.Cain's Salvation was such a well written book.  The imagery used in constructing a view of what Afghanistan actually looks like, feels like, smells like in your head, the words used to power-punch emotions into you and convey the depth of pain and unrelenting love these characters feel and experience and ultimately to convey the swirling turmoil and uncertainness each individual person is going through is nothing short of amazing. Beautiful. Emotional.Cain is our handsome troubled hero doctor back from the horrors of war in Afghanistan, shouldering burdens unknown to most and trying to get over his fiancé whom he had 'let go' through a dear john letter.  Cain is a wonderful character who goes through a tumult of emotions and actions trying to rectify his mistake.  He was a gruff, alpha male, protect-my-woman type of man and those are my absolute ideal! The writing duo that makes up Sarah O'Rourke portrays a marvellous man fighting his demons and fighting for a second chance at love.  His ex-fiancé Faith is a good strong, intelligent woman who has the support and love of her sisters to guide her though the heart-break caused by Cain's desertion of her and finally conquest.  And each sister is simply wonderful and unique in character, I really can't wait to read each of their individual stories especially Honor and Zeke.The writing flows smoothly and the dialogue was perfect for each person involved.  A fantastic story about heart-break, redemption, forgiveness, faith and above all else the healing qualities of family and Love. Buy it!
