Caroline and the raider (Orphan Train #3)

Linda Lael Miller

Hiring the former Confederate raider, Guthrie Hayes, to rescue her fiance, Seaton Flynn, from the hangman's noose, bold Wyoming schoolmistress Caroline gets more than she bargains for when she falls for the dashing Hayes. Holding her lovely head high, 21 year old Wyoming schoolmistress Caroline Chalmers did what no lady should: she marched right into the local saloon to see the dashing and reckless 33 year old Guthrie Hayes. Worse still, she went to ask him for help. She needed the former Confederate raider to plan a jailbreak to rescue her fiance, Seaton Flynn, from the hangman's noose. An orphan raised by spinster sisters, Caroline was prepared to do almost anything to save her beloved Seaton. So why did her breath suddenly become a shivery sigh when she looked into Hayes's twinkling green eyes? Too late Caroline knew how perilous her request really was, for this strong and daring ex-soldier would refuse her nothing no matter how dangerous... but first he intended to teach her everything about the power of a man's love, beginning with a shameless odyssey to ecstasy in his arms...
