Description
One woman had owned his heart. The other one owned his soul.
DESIRE SO SWEET
He thought he was a monster...
Jed Baker had lived through hell on earth and had the demons to prove it. Then he met an innocent girl who gave his troubled soul peace, but he couldn't bear to taint her sweetness with the death and violence threatening to consume him.
She knew he was a hero...
Ginny Lawson lived under the control of an abusive father who used her gentle nature and tender heart against her. She longed for someone to love her enough to save her, and when Jed rolled into town she knew that her hero had come.
FORBIDDEN DESIRE
Jed Baker had been devastated by the loss of his wife and remained faithful to her memory for twenty-five long, lonely years. During that time, Claire had been a surrogate mother to his sons and one of his dearest friends. From the moment they met, he'd been drawn to the single mother against his will and he finally understood why.
She was the other half of his soul.
Abandoned by the father of her children, Claire Abbot had no use for another man. Until she looked into midnight eyes and felt her shattered heart begin to beat again. Jed was everything she could ever want in a man. In spite of the fact that he owned her heart, she didn't think he was capable of loving anyone again.
He was her forbidden desire.
