Jed Baker was damned.
The Navy SEAL had lost his team, his brothers-in-arms, his family and his home.
Hell, he'd even lost his goddamn mind.
He had survived hell on earth, and the taint of death and violence that filled his soul was toxic; the demons he carried within, a threat to everyone around him.
In his darkest hour, he met a sweet, innocent woman who warmed his cold, barren heart and gave his tormented soul peace.
She made him want to be the hero she thought he was.
Her unconditional love gave the weary warrior something to fight for, and he'd walk through the fires of hell to keep her.
He was redeemed.

Desperate
2014
Can’t keep her, can’t get rid of her...
Matt Baker discovered the hard way that you don’t always get what you want. Especially when what he wanted the most was an infuriating woman who blackmailed him into marriage, refused to share his bed and then caught the first bus out of town before the ink on their annulment was dry. He hadn’t seen Harley in twelve long years and now she was back in his life, just as desirable and frustrating as ever. But this time around, he’s determined to make her his, no matter what it takes.
Some things are better left in the past...
At least that was what Harley Abbott Baker told herself when she ended the marriage made in hell and left her miserable hometown twelve years ago. She had sworn never to return to Lakeside and she wouldn’t be back now if she had a choice. No sacrifice was too great to make for her son, even if it meant facing his father. Discovering that she was still susceptible to Matthew’s bad boy charm reinforced her determination to get him out of her life once and for all, no matter what it takes.
An Excerpt from Desire Has A Name
“Why are we here, Matthew?” Harley asked somberly as her pensive gaze stared at the silvery moon reflected on the surface of the water.
“To settle a few things,” Matt responded as he stared at her profile broodingly in the moonlight. “Like why the thought of making love with me repulses you.”
“I am not having this conversation.” Harley refused.
The fact that she didn't deny it hurt like hell. “We're not leaving here until you tell me, Harley.” he insisted stubbornly.
“Contrary to local gossip, I don't jump in bed with any man who comes along,” she informed him indignantly.
“I'm not just any man,” he countered. “I'm your husband and the father of your child.”
“And I'm engaged to someone else,” she reminded him. “Donald sure as hell wouldn't appreciate me sleeping with my ex.”
“Not even if it meant getting the divorce you want so badly?” Matt asked shrewdly as a completely insane idea occurred to him. Hell, he knew she wouldn't agree to it, but it was worth a shot and he was willing to try anything at this point.
“What do you mean?” She asked and looked at him in confusion.
“The only way I'll sign the divorce papers is if you make love with me.”
Harley's jaw dropped and she stared at him as if he were deranged. “You can't be serious,” she barely breathed. This was a low blow, even for Matthew. Hell, she knew he was willing to go to any lengths to get what he wanted, but this was taking things too damn far.
“You know I don't bluff, Harley.” Matt never bluffed and he wasn't this time either. However, he was more than capable of telling her a flat out lie if it suited his purposes. And it did.
“But this is insane,” she said as reasonably as possible under the circumstances. “Why would you even suggest such a thing?”
“Because I want you, dammit,” Matt admitted bluntly.
That did not impress her in the least. Matthew wanted every woman he met. There was no way in hell she was gonna wind up as a notch on his bed post again. “I don't want you,” she denied adamantly.
“Liar,” he accused.

Clueless
2014
This is the second book in the Bad Baker Boys series. It is Matthew's story...
Mark Baker was living the dream.
The former professional quarterback was wealthy, successful, and even had a Super Bowl ring.
His self-indulgent lifestyle was turned upside down when a precocious eleven-year-old girl decided that he would be the perfect husband for her mom.
Like hell.
He had no use for a wife and child, but he did want the hotter-than-the-fires-of-hell single mother in his bed.
Before he knew it, he was playing house with the sexy mom, carrying her bags at the mall, building sandcastles with the girl, and enjoying it!
The bad boy had never had a relationship in his life, but it couldn't hurt to try, right?
He was clueless.
Note: This book was previously published as My Name Is Desire.

When he met the woman from his wettest, wildest dreams, she told him in explicit detail what she wanted to do to him and claimed she just wanted no strings sex.
The heat between them was downright combustible, and his all-consuming desire for the leather-clad temptress brought out his primitive wild side.
She was everything he'd ever wanted, and nothing that he needed.
He was tempted.
