It’s a pleasure to welcome back one of my favorite romance authors and all-around splendid human, Peggy Jaeger, here to tell us about her latest tale of romantic suspense. Take it away, Peggy!

Lexi Buckley wants answers about her younger sister’s death. The police have labeled it a suicide, but Lexi doesn’t believe it. Stymied in her investigation, she doesn’t know where to turn next. After a chance encounter with a private investigator, she thinks her prayers have been answered.

Aiden Keane has never been an answer to a prayer before, but he agrees to help Lexi. A quirky combo of brains and beauty, the pixie blonde makes him feel things no professional ever should for a client.

When their investigation puts Lexi’s life in jeopardy, her safety becomes his number one priority. The hard part is not falling for her.

Excerpt:

Were you close with your sister?” Aiden asked.

Not the way we should have been. Not at the end.

“We had a sizable age difference between us. Almost ten years. I was the big sis. The oldest.” Her lips trembled when she pulled them into a sad line. Rolling her eyes she added, “The bossy one, according to her. She was the baby and took full advantage of her status from the moment she realized it.”

“And rightly so.” The corners of his eyes crinkled. “I’m the youngest of my brothers and I’ll can tell you with one hundred percent honesty, my oldest brother is the bossiest one of us. I think it comes with birth order. Although he takes his so called right uber-seriously. Especially at work.”

This time her grin was steadier.  “What kind of business do you all own together?”

“We a run a private security company.”

“Security?”

“Personal bodyguards, if a client needs protection from something. Background checks for employers. Mostly we do investigations.”

“What, like private eyes? Like on television?”

He laughed. “Nothing so glamorous. The fast cars and hot babes are all fantasy. It’s a lot of boring research, computer work, and surveillance, but yeah, you could say I’m a private eye.”

Lexi’s entire mood turned on his words. The sorrow flew, the hurt dissolved. Even her nervous trivia-speak went dormant. She sat bolt upright, her knees bumping against the tabletop when she shifted. Excitement shot from her system as she turned her body, placed a hand across his forearm and declared, “Oh, my God. You’re the answer to my prayers.”

Here’s Peggy Jaeger to tell us more about her A Pride of Brothers series.

Rhonda, thanks so much for spotlighting A PRIDE OF BROTHERS: AIDEN today.

I love my Wild Rose Press sistah, so much! LOL

Since I am such a visual person, once I dream up a story and character line for a new book, I like to imagine the way my hero, heroine, and the secondary characters would look if a movie were made of my story.

Hey – we can always hope a movie gets made of our stories and we go Hollywood!

For Balance, I had only 2 people in mind to play Phillip and Decker: Busy Phillips and Patrick Swayze. I didn’t even need to troll through google images for celebrities to fit these two because from the moment I thought what they looked like, Busy and Patrick jumped into my head.

For Joe Madina, that silver fox himself, Sam Elliot was my first and only choice. And for David, a very young Kurt Russell fit the bill nicely.

You can visit my Pinterest page here for BALANCE to see the images I used to envision them: https://www.pinterest.com/peggyjaeger/balance/

Busy Phillips makes the perfect Phillipa ( the name kinda implies it, no? Lol) She is tall, arrogant in a non-arrogant way, and I feel she hides a lot of herself behind her pretty face. Just like Phil does

As for Patrick Swayze – need I really say more than just his name? For that matter, Sam Elliot, too? Hee hee.

Being so visually minded is helpful when writing descriptions, and I think Pinterest may have been invented for writers as a gift to their creativity. It has certainly sparked mine a time or two or a thousand since I joined the site.

Meet romance author Peggy Jaeger.

Peggy Jaeger writes contemporary romances and rom coms about strong women, the families who support them, and the men who can’t live without them.

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, Peggy brings all aspects of 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 has created the families she wanted as that lonely child.

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