Silken Threads — Monica Barrie

As the daughter of a corporate monarch, Cassandra Leeds was expected to marry into high society -- with or without love. But society wasn't enough for Cassie, and when the chance to manage the Twin River Ranch was offered as her last chance for independence, she headed west.

Cassie never expected Kirk North, the ranch foreman, to stand in her way. But first she had to prove herself to him before he would teach the city girl all about horses, ranches and love on the lone prairie.
