Introducing....Tracey Cross

guess this is as good a day as any to start blogging again. The ease of facebook has sucked all the blog right out of me. At least on facebook you know that there is potential for 1300 people to skim my post. Blogs---not so much.

I've been playing solo-mom for the last few months as my husband is in Kuwait serving in whatever they're calling it these days--it was Iraqi Freedom. I think Enduring Freedom is what we call it now--in any case, here at home we are calling it Enduring Dad's Deployment.

Anyway, something exciting is happening this summer. I am writing historicals under a pen name. So why announce a pen name? I'm so glad you asked...because everyone knows anyway and I want to show you all my fabulous new cover from Summerside Press. So here is the official announcement of the new me and my new book written under a family name, Tracey Cross

Product Description

Jane Albright's life is shattered. The Nebraska homesteader is newly widowed, with one child to care for and another on the way. When she learns that she is at risk of losing the family home and freighting business to a greedy moneylender named Franklin Lloyd, she has no choice but to brandish a bullwhip and haul freight all the way to Deadwood, South Dakota. Franklin agrees to give Jane three months to pay the note, and she is determined to secure her children's future. But Deadwood is a rough place for a woman, and Jane is soon over her head. Franklin longs to help her - but will she let him?
