Produktbeschreibung

Win the Lottery, live happily ever after! Well, maybe.

When Ruth and Joe Marsh win the New Mexico Lottery jackpot, they realize almost immediately that things are going to be a little complicated than they'd thought. But anything's possible for them now! Nothing but good can come of having this much money! Or so they think.

Until Ruth's boss gives her an ultimatum: buy half his insurance agency and continue to run it, or leave. She's going to have to quit. But then what will she do with herself?

And Joe gets cold feet about marketing his novels. Are they really good enough to spend this kind of money on them? What if he puts himself out there and the books flop?

And then their youngest son disappears, his custom truck abandoned in a ditch. Where is he? Why haven't they heard anything? Now too much money is the least of their problems.

Loretta Miles Tollefson moved to New Mexico in the early 1990s, where she subsequently retired from a career in government service. She now focuses her energy on writing books set in New Mexico.

Autorenporträt

Loretta Miles Tollefson has been publishing fiction and poetry since 1975. (She's not old--she started young!) Growing up in foothills of the Olympic Mountains in the log cabin her grandfather built and her father was born in led naturally to an interest in history and historical fiction. When she retired to the mountains of northern New Mexico, writing historical fiction set there was a logical result. The Moreno Valley Sketches books are the first in many planned books set there.

Before turning to historical fiction full time, Loretta wrote Crown of Laurel, a novel set in Seattle in the recession of the early 1980's. Loretta holds a B.S. in Bible Education from Multnomah University in Portland, Oregon. This background informs her poetry collections Mary at the Cross: Voices from the New Testament and And Then Moses Was There: Voices from the Old Testament.

In the mid-1980's, Loretta and her husband suffered the loss of their first child in the fifth month of pregnancy. Her poetry collection But Still My Child came out of that period and is designed to help others deal with the pain of miscarriage.

Loretta holds M.A.'s in Communication and in English Literature from the University of New Mexico. Most days, you'll find her researching New Mexico history in the 1800's and writing furiously. She publishes short historical fiction every week at LorettaMilesTollefson.Wordpress.com.
