Prairie Flame — Jessica Howard

IRISH-AMERICAN PRINCESS, SWEET FLAME OF LONDON SOCIETY

Lovely, headstrong Meridel McGraw daughter of a wealthy New York industrialist, had vowed to marry an English nobleman. Yet it was Dan Forrester, the rugged American rancher, who swept her from the glittering ballroom of Buckingham Palace to the vast Kansas frontier with a passion as magnificent as the prairies he taught her to love.

Then a bitter land quarrel forced Meridel to flee from her new-found love to the cruel arms of an aristocratic fortune hunter. Yet even as she raised the child of her one secret passion...even as she risked her life as an agent in the great slave rebellion...still she longed for the man who had taken her heart and would forever keep it his own.
