House for Sale Soldier Included - Cora Seton

Twelve years ago, Lincoln Elliott made a rash decision that wiped out his family's business-and turned Elliott Ridge into a ghost town. Now he's back from serving with the US Special Forces, and he's ready-with the help of his four brothers-to bring the Ridge back to life. They've got the family lumber company up and running again, but a town needs people-specifically women. So when Lincoln meets Charlotte Holmes at the Chance Creek airport, he's desperate to get her to settle down-not just because he's trying to build up their community, but because he wants to know if the instant attraction between them can turn into something more. He offers to sell her his house for a dollar-and help renovate it, too. He'll work night and day if that's what it takes to earn Charlotte's love. If only she'd tell him what she's so afraid of.

Charlotte Holmes thought she'd won the jackpot when wealthy racehorse owner, Ivan Gasperyn, paid her way through veterinary school, but her dream position working at his stables soon turned into a nightmare. She's finally escaped from Ivan's iron control, so when Lincoln offers her a home in the remote ghost town he's bringing back to life, she says yes. Life on Elliott Ridge turns out to be everything she always wanted and Lincoln is the kind of man she's always wanted to meet. Can she let her guard down long enough to fall in love with him?

Lincoln knows he's found the woman he wants to spend his life with, but when a stranger shows up looking for a stolen horse, it's clear that Charlotte is in trouble.

Can Lincoln save her in time?
