Peggy Jaeger is a contemporary romance writer who writes Romantic Comedies about strong women, the families who support them, and the men who can’t live without them. If she can make you cry on one page and bring you out of tears rolling with laughter the next, she’s done her job as a writer!
Family and food play huge roles in Peggy’s stories because she believes 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, she brings all topics of daily life into her 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 she longed for sisters, brothers and a family that vowed to stick together no matter what came their way. Through her books, she’s created the families she wanted as that lonely child.
When she’s not writing Peggy is usually painting, crafting, scrapbooking or decoupaging old steamer trunks she finds at rummage stores and garage sales.

Ghosts of New England
|
Welcome to Last Light Point, a small town located along the New England coastline somewhere north of Boston (we think). It's weathered many a nor'easter, as well as an assortment of truly evil people. Rumor has it you'll find more than alcoholic spirits at the popular tavern, The Crowe's Nest.
Are you ready for an adventure? Sit back and let us tell you some ghost stories. Just don't look at the gibbet!

The Pirate's Promise (Autumn 1728) by Lisa A. Olech
The Crowe's Nest Tavern was located in a very fortuitous place. If you were condemned to hang in Execution Square, they were your last stop!
Everly Crowe along with her father and two sisters ran The Crowe's Nest Tavern that was rumored to be slightly haunted.
John Beckett was a pirate, or not. Forced upon the account, he'd lost his belief in a lot of things before he caught the eye of a bonny serving lass who was fierce enough to go toe to boot with his captor and captain, Bartholomew Jacques.
Jacques held a note on the tavern and tormented Everly and her family as he terrorized all the small towns up and down the coast. But even his threats and deceit couldn't keep Everly and John from promising themselves to each other, 'till death they do part.
