Candy Kane

Candy Kane and her older sister Leigh are the daughters of Major Grant Kane and his social butterfly wife, Marcia. Leigh is a beautiful blonde- called Sugar as a child -- and Candace Victoria, fourteen at the opening of the series, is skinny and plain yet her charming and sparkling personality serves to get her noticed. In the introductory book (Candy Kane,) Major Kane is transferred to Fort Benning, Georgia. The Major's wife, Marcia and daughter, Leigh are averse to moving and make life difficult for the family. The delightful Candy is well loved by the Fort Benning post. She meets and eventually dates sixteen year old Barton Reed.
