Interestingly, not all highwaymen were men. Figures like Catherine Ferrers—sometimes called the “Wicked Lady”—blurred the lines between myth and reality, donning disguises to ride under moonlight.

Loyalty Has No Expiration Date   Even when they’ve gone, you stand by them. Even when the world judges, you don’t flinch. Your ride-or-die is eternal. Because love like that don’t par...
