Proud Eagle — Cassie Edwards

She has a boy's name and a man's job, but beneath the flannel shirt of this "lumberjane" beats the heart of a fiery and passionate woman. With her step-brother plotting to overthrow her and the company's future hanging in the balance, newly arrived lumber heiress Billie Shaughnessy is willing to fight for what is hers. Unfortunately, the land her father was razing may have belonged to another...


Makah Chief Proud Eagle has every reason to despise the Shaughnessys. Billie's late father broke treaties, stole land, and gouged the forests closest to his village. Mudslides ensued, killing a number of the Owl Clan including Proud Eagle's beloved wife. Proud Eagle is determined that Billie not take the last thing he holds dear -- but it may be too late...


They should be bitter enemies, rivals for the wood of Eagle Bay. But Proud Eagle and Billie must find common ground before old hurts can be buried -- and a mighty passion can take root...
