Shades Of Old Glory--a paranormal romance short story

By Susanne Marie Knight

A Paranormal Short Story. (12,000 words)

After winning a contest she doesn't remember entering, newly graduated Rebecca Sedgwick arrives at a Virginia plantation bed and breakfast ready to relax before starting her job search. She finds her older hosts very congenial but Jake, the handsome handyman, is antagonistic. That night, on the eve of the Fourth of July celebration, she has a vivid dream of a Civil War battle. As one corporal lays dying, he asks for her help. But how can she possibly help a ghost?

Jake Mantree is a hired hand on the very plantation his ancestors lost after the Civil War. A brooding loner, he resents northerner Rebecca's winning ways. But he doesn't count on her Yankee perseverance nor a Union ghost who has plans to make them fall in love over the holiday.
