Under a Prairie Moon
USA Today Bestseller
“He is the most frightening, handsome man I have ever seen”
Although these words had been written in another time, in another woman's diary, Kathy Conley thought they described Dalton Crowkiller perfectly. He was the kind of man a woman would sin for, die for, if she could only keep him in her arms.
But the dangerous half-breed belonged to the untamed West, and he'd been claimed by another woman long ago. Time itself would keep him and Kathy apart...until he was given one last chance to change the course of his life. Together, they found there was no past, no future, only the wonder of the present, the raw, aching desire between them, and a fierce love that could be satisfied, but never quenched.
Feather in the Wind
Black Wind
He gazed out over a land as vast and empty as the sky, praying for the strength to guide his people, and he saw her face. She came to him in a vision, a woman as mysterious as the new moon over the prairie, as tender as springtime in the Paha Sapa. And he knew his life was changed forever.
Susannah
She saw his face in a faded picture, and his eyes, restless as the wind, seemed to call to her. It was said he’d been hanged nearly a century ago for kidnapping a white woman, yet his story seemed unfinished. To the writer in her, he was an inspiration, but to the lonely woman within he was a dream come true who would lure her across the years to fulfill a love beyond time.
The Angel and the Outlaw ~ 1996
An outlaw, a horse thief, a man killer, J.T. Cutter wasn’t surprised when he was strung up for his crimes. What amazed him was the heavenly being who granted him one year to change his wicked ways. Yet when he returned to his old life, he hoped to cram a whole lot of hell-raising into those 12 months no matter what the future held.
But even as J.T. headed back down the trail to damnation, a sharp-tongued beauty was making other plans for him. With the body of a temptress and the heart of a saint, Brandy was the only woman who could save J.T. And no matter what it too, she’d prove to him that the road to redemption could lead to rapturous bliss.

March 1991
The Black Hills, 1876
It was a land where a man could ride for days without seeing anything but fragrant pines, an occasional deer, or a lone eagle soaring in the limitless blue sky…a land where the Indian still roamed wild and free…an land that drew together two lovers to embrace a passionate destiny neither could have foreseen.
The Cheyenne
Accustomed to the ways of the white man, he returned to his tribe in search of a vision quest, to share with his people the glory and heartache of the last golden days before the Battle of the Little Big Horn, and to find the beautiful woman who haunted his dreams.
Elayna
Sheltered and innocent, she shared every civilized woman’s fear of the Indian, until she was kidnapped by the darkly handsome Cheyenne. Slowly, her disdain changed to desire beneath his hard, bronzed body, until she would make any sacrifice to keep him by her side forever.
REVIEWS
THE TALISMAN said:
"A Whisper in the"Wind is a poignant love story of not only a man's love for a woman, but his people, his heritage, and a long-time bond between a young man and his grandfather. It is the kind of book that you can laugh with, cry with and fall in love with. A must read for anyone who believes in fate, karma and never-ending love.

Romantic Times said:
A Whisper in the Wind is fresh, powerful and exciting, a time-travel novel taut with raw primal tension and rich in Indian history and tradition. To top this off, Ms. Baker has included not one, but four endings (a la John Fowles' The French Lieutenant's Woman . Such a tale could only be penned by Leisure's Leading Lady of Indian Romance, Madeline Baker.
