Thanksgiving in Connecticut

No place we've ever lived is safe...that is, safe from us using it as a setting for our stories! We lived in Stonington, Connecticut, at two different and very special times in our lives, so the residents there were long overdue for our literary treatment... 

Talented photographer Paige Coleman has stayed away from her beloved seaside Connecticut village of Stonington ever since being mortified by ‘viral’ YouTube video that captured her in the buff at the top of a whaling ship at Mystic Seaport. 

Now, four years later, Paige decides that the time has come to face up to her past when her quirky, eighty-six year old grandmother throws the mother of all Thanksgivings to celebrate her recent marriage to ‘younger man’ Ed Fenwick. But with hometown god and former flame Stanley Fenwick, grandson of the groom, sure to be a part of every event, Paige must now protect her heart as well as retain her sanity, even as her cougar-turned-matchmaker grandmother uses every resource at her disposal to rekindle old fires of passion. 

As Thanksgiving dinner looms, Paige must realize that the sacrifice of a little dignity is worth the New England home and family she has missed so much.
