The books on this page are ebooks published by Belgrave House. The historicals were previously published by Signet Books.

Loving Jake is a book I wrote for Silhouette Romance. Unfortunately, the guidelines for the Romance line were changed and my hero - a half-breed mechanic - didn't fit the new requirements. Still, it's a book close to my heart. I think you'll enjoy it.

Loving Jake
Ginny Whelan is less than enthusiastic about house-sitting for her sister, Debra, in Southern California. Norco, known as the "Horse Capital of the World," is a far cry from what Ginny is used to. But when Debra's VW breaks down and Ginny meets handsome Jake Running Horse, the local mechanic, things decidedly improve.


HAWK'S WOMAN
Hallie McIntyre had lived in a convent since she was thirteen, and she expected to become a nun…until she secretly nursed a desperately injured Lakota-white half-breed back to health.

The man called himself Clay but John Walking Hawk was a wanted man who sought revenge for the deaths of his wife and parents. Only passion can bridge the gap between such different souls.


ROMANTIC TIMES said: Powerful. Tender. Poignant. HAWK'S WOMAN is a beautiful love story full of warmth, compassion and innocent sensuality. Another Baker triumph.


APACHE FLAME
Alisha Faraday, the preacher's daughter, had been friends with Mitch Garret, son of a drunken father and an Apache mother, when she was a child. Though the town looked down on Mitch, their friendship turned to love. But their parents' lies drove Mitch from town. Now he returns and though their love ripens, secrets from the past threaten to drive them apart.


Kidnapped by Indians ten years before at the age of seven, Teressa Bryant had no memory of her parents or her life in San Francisco.

Half-breed Chance McCloud, known as Wolf Shadow among the Lakota, has been hired by Teressa's parents to rescue their daughter. Chance is torn between his need for the reward--and his need for Teressa.

Romantic Times Magazine said: Baker's portrayal of Native American life has made her a leader in this genre. The characters are beautifully created, although the plot has been done many times before. It is the heritage and coming together of cultures and lovers that make this romance so special.


LAKOTA LOVE SONG
Kaylee Matthews discovers a wounded Lakota warrior and helps him recover while hiding him from her family.

Blue Hawk must return to his people, who need him, but he takes Kaylee with him, and she must learn to adapt to Indian life. But Custer is tracking down the Lakota, and the Indians decide to defend their sacred land…

Affaire de Coeur said: "Madeline Baker has written a poignant story that deals with realistic issues. She addresses Blue Hawk's fear and hatred of the white man as his love for Kaylee grows while skillfully portraying Kaylee's discomfort in a new culture and her determination to succeed while part of her heart remains at home. The plot grows from these issues and carries the reader along a smoothly flowing path. Lovers of Indian stories should not miss this one." Lea Moyer

Romantic Times Magazine said: "Another captivating and emotional romance that captures the true magic of the Old West."
