To Walk in the Sun (Wiggons' School for Elegant Young Ladies - Book 1)

“What has the three of you worried?” Tess finally asked. She would miss living with them on a daily basis and hearing what their vivid imaginations conjured up.
“The ghost,” Eliza announced.
“Ghost?” Vincent laughed.
“I am serious, Lord Atwood.” Eliza planted her hands on her hips, affronted that he would make light of her concern. “The Ghost, they are calling him. He comes out after dark and stops the unsuspecting. He takes nothing, but looks inside the carriages. If there are ladies present, he chooses the prettiest and kisses her.”
“A kissing ghost?” Vincent’s shoulders shook with laughter.
“This isn’t something to be made light of,” Rosemary defended.
“I am sorry. You are correct. If there is a highwayman in the area, then we should all be alert, whether he be alive or dead.”
Tess glanced over to Natalie. As she feared, her friend’s face had gone deathly pale. Tess approached and drew her to the side so no one could hear their conversation. “I am sure it is just a coincidence,” she offered.
Natalie gave her a weak smile. “You are right. What are the chances of there being another kissing ghost? Besides, the one I knew died long ago.”

About Jane
Jane Charles has lived in the Midwest her entire life. As a child she would more likely be found outside with a baseball than a book in her hand. In fact, Jane hated reading until she was sixteen. Out of boredom on a long road trip she borrowed her older sister’s historical romance and fell in love with reading. She long ago lost count of how many fiction novels she has read over the years and her love for them never died. Along with romance she has a passion for history and the two soon combined when she penned her first historical romance. What turned into a hobby became a passion, which has been fully supported by her husband, three children and three cats.
