A Husband for the Homestead

She needed a husband to save her homestead. He needed a place to outrun his past. When Elsie Grant advertises for a husband, it's not for love-it's survival. With winter closing in and trouble pressing from every direction, she needs a steady hand to help her keep the land that's all she has left. Caleb Hayes rides in answering that call-a quiet, capable man with eyes that have seen too much and a past he won't speak of.
At first, it's an arrangement. Work. Shelter. A name on paper. But the prairie has its own way of binding hearts. As threats gather-greedy neighbors, a hard season, and the shadows Caleb brought with him-Elsie must decide if she can trust the man beside her. And Caleb must choose between the life he's running from..and the one he's just begun to build.
