I enjoyed this one. As always I get the last in the series and read it first!! But this one has me wanting the other 2 that preceded it.

But after the war is over Daniel and Jesse are in Washington and Richmond helping with the aftermath. Crista's ancesteral home is under the gun, literally, on forclosure fromt he Yankee carpet-baggers. In steps Colonel Jeremy McCauley, who is in fact Crista's brother-in-law, a Yankee officer. Well to save her home she has to marry Jeremy because the ownership papers are inher brothers name, Jesse fought for the Confederates and allproperty that was owned by Reb's is being confiscated. In other words, Crista must marry the Devil himself to save her home. Then after her homeis saved, Jeremy decides this will not be a marriage in name only. He wants a home and a family, but also wants to continue his career as a Calvary officer. Now he has orders sending him West and he diecides Crista will accompany him to his new command.
