Ghosts of Southampton

ID Johnson creates characters you'll want to have as your best friends with antagonists you'll love to hate. Her love for all things princess-y compelled her to write her first medieval romance at fifteen, and she hasn't stopped writing since. Now, her plots are a little more complex, her topics a little more mature, and her romances often more intense, but she's never lost the love she felt the first moment she breathed life into a character over twenty years ago. If you love feisty paranormal heroines, damsels who cause distress, or historical ladies who know how to light up a room, then pull up a seat, get out your eReader, and meet ID Johnson's friends. Soon enough, they'll be your friends, too.

An arranged marriage, an abusive family, a dream of freedom in America just out of reach....

After Meg Westmoreland’s father mysteriously dies when she’s a small child, her life quickly spirals out of control. Her mother is mean and manipulative, her uncle abusive in a way Meg won’t even speak of. Getting away from them becomes an obsession. When she discovers she’s been promised to a wealthy American, she’ll do whatever she must to flee the only home she’s ever known in Southampton, hoping for a new life in America and a chance to start over, even if it means leaving behind the wealthy, high-society life she’s grown accustomed to.

For most of his life, Charles Ashton has known that his father arranged for him to marry Mary Margaret Westmoreland. Even though the temptations of being young and rich beckon him, he believes in keeping promises. However, his attempts at meeting Meg are thwarted at every turn, and eventually, Charlie begins to wonder if Meg even exists at all.

Ultimately, destiny’s plan will be revealed and their worlds will collide aboard a passenger liner named Titanic. Discover how Meg and Charlie came to find themselves aboard the most famous ship in history, see how their fates unfold aboard the disastrous ship, and start anew with the survivors in New York City.
Ghosts of Southampton will take you through Meg and Charlie’s harrowing adventures from young children to adults discovering that you simply can’t escape your destiny.
