Jackie has a lightness about her and that girl-next-door look going on for her. She has a light complexion, long wavy blonde hair that she keeps either loose or in a messy ponytail, and chocolate-brown eyes. Jackie stands at 5'6" and her weight usually ranges from 125 to 130 lbs, but dropped a lot while she was away. She is comfortable in her own skin and happy with her body, but knows she could stand to gain a few pounds... Overall she's the kind of girl you look at and think is beautiful, even though she doesn't present herself that way. She's very classy, and pretty down to earth. Her appearance reflects this.  She's conservative and doesn't dress like she has anything to show off.  She believes in keeping her body to herself.

Jackie likes to feel pretty but she doesn't go overboard, usually keeping the makeup to a minimum: eyeliners and lipsticks mostly, and she favors comfortable clothing over impractical fashion trends. She has a good fashion sense, though, and can mix up different styles with ease. Jackie loves a wide variety of clothing, ranging from summer dresses to bluejeans and can be found in anything from cowboy boots to sneakers or heels. Her accessories are usually very simple - a couple of rings, earrings if she's going somewhere fancy. She has a natural beauty that doesn't need much adornment.

Jackie is a down to earth and intelligent young woman. She used to be a bit of a dreamer when she was younger, but a few hard knocks have forced Jackie to change some of her views and accept 'reality' more. She tries to remain optimistic though, and most of time she tends to look at the bright side of things.

She is a friendly and warm woman who has a contagious laugh, and an easy smile often accompanied by a gentle word. This does not mean that she is a saint, however, and her temper flares when she is pushed too far. She will not walk away from an argument when she knows she is right and she can be stubborn to the point of being annoying. Jackie stands up for her beliefs and for the people she cares about. She loves her family and friends, and she takes cares of them which can make her nosy and overbearing at times.

She is reliable and loyal almost to a fault to the people she cares about. Jackie is very determined and doesn't like when people tell her what she can or can't do. She keeps her personal life out of work for the most part, telling her regulars only the 'need to knows'. She doesn't like it when people pry and tries hard to keep what she says from hurting others.

The end of the marriage to Luke was very difficult to her and she found comfort in her family and friends, even though the divorce was her choice. Jackie just couldn't bear staying around Luke anymore. Now it seems like a distant memory.  The other great love in her life and the man she still says she wants to marry someday is Alex Stone.  When she left for California she never thought she'd be staying, but she did.  She knew that she hurt Alex, but hopes that he's waited for her.

A yellow VW Beetle.

Father: Carter Sanders (63). A retired firefighter, Carter is a bubbly and honest man who has lived in Pleasant Port his entire life. He owns the The Ocean View in town. Carter treats everybody as they were part of his family. His establishment and house are always open if someone needs a drink or just a friendly face to talk to.

Mother: Amelia Sanders (Deceased).

Siblings:

Patrick Sanders is a bachelor with a taste for younger women. He is a womanizer at heart. Patrick has been living in Boston for the past 15 years. He is a mechanic engineer.

Adam Sanders is a firefighter like his father before him. He is a lovable and fun loving man with a passion boats, cars and ...well men. He is currently single and Jackie just found out that he was gay last month.

Katherine Sanders (Kate) is the wildest of the Saunders' children. She left Pleasant Port after high school and her family doesn't see her very often. Kate always had problems staying in one place for long so she is often on the move. Last time she called her family, Kate was in San Diego, CA.

	Luke was the love of her life. Or so she thought. She always thought they would be together forever but things not always happened the way one expects. After years of an intense and at times troubled marriage Jackie asked for the divorce. Her closest friends and family know what has happened between them, but no one else. She refuses to speak about the incident last February and avoids even thinking about him. She hasn't seen him since and would prefer to keep it that way. Currently she has a restraining order against him.
	Jackie considers Alex her one true love.  She can't consider Luke that anymore because she feels like what she had with Alex was so amazing.  At times she feels like she screwed things all up, and she has hoped that while she was gone he waited for her, but other times she is confused about how she feels.  She wants to be back with him now that she's in Pleasant Port, but knows that it isn't always that easy.  She missed him like crazy and can't wait to see him.
	Her very best friend. She goes to Jenka for everything. Even when Jenka was in Paris she wrote her constantly. She values her opinion and loves her to death.
	Tim is a customer that she knows from the bar.
	Her co-worker. She considers him a good friend, which is funny because she doesn't think that he really has friends that are girls. She thinks that he is a fun guy to hang out with and flirt with, but knows that he is a dog so keeps her distance.
	Knows her from working next door to the FreshMex. They see each other from time to time around town and visit.
	Met her once while walking Duncan.

Activities: Jackie's most frequent pasttime is volunteer work at the elementary school, and the hospital. She also spends a great deal of time in the mornings and after noon walking her dog Duncan and visiting the dogpark. She has a guitar that she likes to pick at from time to time, but doesn't think she's very good. She enjoys painting in her free time, but hardly considers herself an artist.

Likes: Rainy days, country music, the sea. Spicy food and slow dancing. Her family and Alex. Kisses on her neck and shoulder. Sleeping on Sundays mornings after church. She likes to write and the sound of guitar strings being plucked. Her favorite smell is pipe tobacco. The way that Alex looks at her, and the his accent.

Dislikes: Drugs, violence, abuse of any type. Lies, prejudice. Hangovers, and negligence.

Fletcher Montgomery: "Jackie is a really sweet girl and while I'd want to have sex with her, she seems too pure for me. I'd feel like I was corrupting her. She helps me out with problems, protects me... She's like the older sister I never had. Or maybe more like a hot stepsister that I have funny feelings about."
