Who hasn''t wondered, What if I''d made different choices?
In the first book of the "Peg" series, Unladylike, Peg''s fiancé Charlie returned from WWI with shell shock and drove her away to protect her from his emotional damage. Enticed by Ralph Sparks''s alluring Alaskan stories, she eloped with Ralph, even though he was thirty-five years older, to homestead on a remote island in frontier Alaska.
For a few years, Peg loves the adventure, but after giving birth to two daughters, things change. When it''s clear the marriage is over, will she return home to Newport? Will hometown tongues wag if she shows up with two daughters and no husband? Can Peg provide for her family as a single mother during the Great Depression?
After learning Charlie''s wife is serving time for murder, how will she handle the undeniable pull she still feels for her first love?
