Tucker's Claim

Orphaned in a massacre, abused as a "half-breed" child, trained as a ruthless Texas Ranger, Tucker McCade's learned the hard way that you have to fight to survive. So he is shocked when he falls for Sally Mae, a Quaker nurse.

Unable to resist Tucker, Sally Mae throws herself into their torrid affair. Tucker's occupation, however, is the one thing she can't embrace. A staunch pacifist, she can't understand how his gentle hand can clench in fury or pull a trigger to take a life.

But when Sally Mae becomes pregnant, Tucker is willing to do whatever it takes to have his family -including hanging up his guns. Every night they spend together binds them ever closer - until the day his past comes calling…

Sarah has traveled extensively throughout her life, living in other cultures, sometimes in areas where electricity was a concept awaiting fruition and a book was an extreme luxury. While she could easily adjust to the lack of electricity, living without the comfort of a good book was intolerable. To fill the void, she bought pencil and paper and sketched out her own story. In the process, Sarah discovered the joy of writing.

Her first western historical series, The Promise Series, was released in 2005. Gritty, emotional and erotic, the series garnered twenty awards in its first year, including multiple reviewer choice awards and an award for the most romantic couple. When Sarah came up with the idea for the Hell's Eight series featuring Texas Rangers from the time when rangers were more outlaw than law, she knew right away SPICE would be the perfect home for these equally compelling erotic romances. She was thrilled when SPICE purchased the series.

Sarah writes what she loves to read: fast-paced stories with vivid dialogue, intense emotion and well-developed characters. Her attention to detail in her stories continues to win awards and has reserved her a spot on Keeper shelves everywhere.

Whether she's writing very sexy or erotic, Sarah writes romance. She currently has two series with Harlequin - the Hell's Eight series (western historical) with SPICE and the Shadow Wranglers (paranormal) with HQN.
