I’m a #contemporaryromance writer who writes #RomComs about strong women, the families who support them, and the men who can’t live without them. If I can make you cry on one page and bring you out of tears rolling with laughter the next, I’ve done my job as a writer!

#Family and #food play huge roles in my stories because I believe there is nothing that holds a family structure together like sharing a meal…or two…or ten. Dotted with humor and characters that are as real as they are loving, I bring all topics of daily life into my stories: life, death, sibling rivalry, illness and the desire for everyone to find their own happily ever after. Growing up the only child of divorced parents I longed for sisters, brothers and a family that vowed to stick together no matter what came their way. Through my books, I’ve created the families I wanted as that lonely child.

When I’m not #writing I’m usually #painting #crafting #scrapbooking or #decoupaging old steamer trunks I find in #rummagestores and at #garagesales.

As a lifelong diarist, I caught the blogging bug early on, and you can visit me at peggyjaeger.com where I’m blogging about life, writing, and stuff that makes me go “What??!” daily.

Tying into my love of families, my one and only children’s book, THE KINDNESS TALES, was illustrated by my artist mother-in-law.

A lifelong and avid romance reader and writer, I am a member of RWA and my local New Hampshire RWA Chapter
