- Tell us a little about you:
- I've had a hankering to write since I wrote plays for stuff animals in grade school. In High school, I learned the power of words when an English teacher read one of my assignments aloud in class and everyone was silent afterwards.
I began seriously writing romance ten years ago and after many "enjoyed it, but" from agents and editors, I found a small press, The Wild Rose Press who took a chance on me. I now have three books published. The most recent received an EPPIE award for Best Contemporary Romance. the first two books are historical westerns. One is the first book of a five book series. The second book will be out in e-book on June 6th and print on December 5th.

5 Spur Review!
This is what the reviewer had to say: "With Zeke and Maeve, Ms. Jager has created two complex and compelling characters.

Jagger is a Yokshire name, even though Mick Jagger comes from London. It is very common in the north of England. I have Jaggers in the family and I have always liked the name, so I picked it for my pen name. It might have come over with the Danes/Vikings who invaded and stayed.
