Melissa, is my pleasure.
Peppers cannot take temperatures below 50F. I don't baby my plants so I do treat them roughly at planting time too....so I don't think to loose some roots is the problem with yours....I do however plant them in the last week of May to avoid the cold spells etc. This year is being colder in MA so I might wait until June 1st. If you can put a cover during night they might recover since it only dipped here in the 40's.
