So, I have the following:

Now, how do I save the href as js var?

var link = jQuery(this).find('.link').???();

$(document).ready(function(){
   var strLinkHref =  $("a.link").attr("href");
   alert(strLinkHref) ;
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<a class="link" href="http://www.google.com">Simple Link</a>

You could use jQuery's attribute getter attr:

var link = jQuery(this).find('.link').attr('href');

Maybe you need this.

var link = jQuery(this).find('.link').attr('href');
