MISS STELLA'S GHOST IS A ROMANTIC AT HEART

The Halo Legacy Series

Miss Stella continues to take a special interest in the citizens of Halo, especially brides like herself... 

***Excerpt from CHALLENGING THE LEGACY (Book #5 of the Halo Legacy Series)***

As the organist played the beginning chord of the wedding march, the crowd stood and watched Ruby walk down the aisle with Pierce on one side and Tallie on the other. 

Solemnly, the trio made their way across the parquet wooden floor of the Waring House ballroom and onto a dais. 
When the wedding march ended, the old organ played a few bars of a lively dance tune. The organist turned her startled gaze toward Mayor Audrey, who stood at the front of the room to officiate the ceremony. 

"For those of you who haven't heard about Miss Stella, the resident ghost of Waring House, stop by and listen to our storyteller later today," Audrey commented. 

A window slammed shut and Portia Stratford's hat lifted off her head, levitated for a moment, then swirled away and fell in the aisle. 

A gasp arose from the audience amid whispers of, "It's Miss Stella." 

Pierce nearly laughed out loud at the perfect timing. Seemed even Miss Stella didn't much care for Portia's interference and would do her part to keep this wedding on track.

  2. Miss Stella is, for the most part, a subtle character in the Halo Legacy Series. :)
