My current LINQ query and example XML are below. What I'd like to do is select the primary email address from the email-addresses element into the User.Email property. The type element under the email-address element is set to primary when this is true. There may be more than one element under the email-addresses but only one will be marked primary.

What is the simplest approach to take here?

Current Linq Query (User.Email is currently empty):

var users = from response in xdoc.Descendants("response")
            where response.Element("id") != null
            select new User
                       {
                           Id = (string)response.Element("id"),
                           Name = (string)response.Element("full-name"),
                           Email = (string)response.Element("email-addresses"),
                           JobTitle = (string)response.Element("job-title"),
                           NetworkId = (string)response.Element("network-id"),
                           Type = (string)response.Element("type")
                       };
