Set in the heart of Appalachia, Salvation on Sand Mountain is Covington's unsurpassed and chillingly captivating exploration of the nature, power, and extremity of faith - an exploration that gradually turns inward, until Covington finds himself taking up the snakes.

Book excerpt: Three more steamy unforgettable love stories in one paperback. Contains: The billionaire''s Hope, Picked by the Billionaire, Saved by the Billionaire The Billionaire''s Hope: I hadn''t seen her since the day I broke her brother''s nose. We came from different worlds. She was trouble wrapped in temptation, and it would be smart to keep my distance. The last time I''d dared to touch Katie, her brother foolishly took a swing at me. Her family taught me a painful lesson that day about money and power. I gave him a bloody nose. They destroyed my life. Today she desperately needed a ride back to LA. Six hours of her warm body wrapped around mine on the back of my bike was the price she''d have to pay. With her life in flames, the danger was more real than she knew. When she ran from her brother and into my arms, the kiss was meant to scare her off. It didn''t work. She''s sexual napalm, and I''m the match. Now we''re both toast. I''m not giving her up until I have to. Even if it destroys me. Katie: I hadn''t seen Nick since high school, the day he broke my brother''s nose. I bumped into him while trapped in Las Vegas with no way to get home. Maybe this was my second chance. I didn''t accept the ride to LA on the back of his bike just because he''d been the hottest and baddest boy in school. I swear I didn''t. My life was all planned out. I left my sensible house every day in my sensible clothes and went to my sensible job. Until, some crazy targeted me, and it all went up in smoke. Now, I''m done being sensible. I know what I want, and he''s pure trouble. Nick''s all wrong for me, but only he can keep me safe. I''m falling for him. It can''t work. It doesn''t make sense. I''m walking straight into a broken heart, and I can''t stop. Picked by the Billionaire A night I wouldn''t forget. An offer I couldn''t refuse. Liam:I had dared to love once and lost. The memory haunted me every day. Now, I have rules, three simple rules: I don''t do dinner, they never come to my place, and I never stay the night. Until I met the tantalizing Amy and she turned everything upside down. It was just one night. Tomorrow I could get back to normal I told myself. When she turned up at my next meeting, normal was no longer on the horizon. Now, she is essential to defeating my nemesis. One way or another she may be my undoing. Amy:I couldn''t get past my failed marriage - I couldn''t take the terrifying leap. When the question became his place or mine, I ran back to my computer to pick another. My sister convinced me to try shock therapy - a one-night stand to get over my phobia. One night without inhibitions and never see him again, that was the plan. Simple enough, right? The next day, he walked into my meeting. Suddenly things weren''t simple anymore. He held the key to my company''s survival; there was just one catch. I had to pretend to be his girlfriend. How hard could that be? Saved by the Billionaire The FBI and the cartel are after her for the same thing: information she doesn''t have. Natalie had gone from the Belle of Boston to Witch of the West End. Everybody in town hated her for her ex-husband''s crimes. Then the FBI showed up to seize everything she owned. Without a penny to her name, she only survived by taking a job working for the most disagreeable man in town. Billionaire inventor Ryan Westerly had never allowed thoughts of any woman to intrude upon his work. But, from the first day his company hired the beautiful Natalie, he could no longer concentrate. The medicines he was developing were too important to allow her to distract him. For the sake of the children, she had to go. When the cartel comes after Natalie, she trusts him with her safety, but can she trust him with her heart?
