All We Carry Home: A Post-World War II Novel - Paperback
by Nicole M. Miller (Author)
A masterfully woven post-World War II story of resilience and equestrian passion, crafted with emotionally rich romance.
In the wake of WWII, former Army nurse Eva Bryant is determined to save her grandfather's Oregon farm and prove herself in the Arabian horse show world. When decorated veteran Warren Hayes arrives with Phantom--the spirited colt Eva helped deliver in war-torn Germany--she seizes her chance to train the unmanageable horse.
As Eva works to tame Phantom and salvage her failing farm, Warren wrestles with his own future: a promised Senate campaign to fight for veterans. But everything unravels under sabotage from a predatory neighbor, crushing debts, and the undeniable pull between the two of them. As victories carry Phantom toward a national championship, Eva and Warren must fight to protect everything they've built--even as Eva guards a devastating secret that could destroy the growing love between them.
