The Incredible Collection Of Lacey Dancer

By Rachael Gutierrez


Lacey Dancer is a renowned American author who was born in 1948. She specializes in historical and contemporary romance literature and has written widely under various names. Some of the names she authored under include Sydney Ann Clary, Sara Chance and Sherry Carr. She has written under her real name as well since starting her work in 1983.

With a growing reputation, Lacey has won a number of awards including Romantic Times Career Achievement that was awarded to her between the year 1991 and 1992. This was for a series of novels she had written under the name Romance Love and Laughter. The second award from Romantic Times came in 1996. This was under the Career Achievement category for the series titled Romantic Adventure.

The words used by Romantic Times depict an author who has mastered her genre. They describe the work as richly intense and dazzling. She manages to give the readers the best characters who make the story fascinating. According to the editor, the work is creative, sharp, imaginative and irresistible. She manages to play around with suspense ensuring that the reader is glued to the book up to the last chapter.

Her original work was published by Meteor in a romantic series called Kismet. This series had been running for years. The last series in collections delivered by Meteor was Pippa and would be the last before the company closed business. This was a turning point for a writer who previously had no trouble publishing.

The closure of Meteor, who was her publisher, presented a challenge to the writer because her works had to find a new home. This was especially challenging for such a novel as Many Faces of Love. This book is considered as an orphaned title because it was left unpublished when the earlier publisher stopped operations.

Having no publisher for her books, Lacey turned around the predicament and formed her own publishing company called Clear Ice Publishing. This also solved the problem of acceptance. Other publishers were reluctant to publish the work of a 40 year old writer among their romance novels. They considered her too old for the genre. It is her company that would release the rest of the books to masses in paperback. This would change her career for good.

Between 1983 and 1989, she released several titles under the name Sara Chance. They were in the series referred to as Southern Comfort while the rest were single novels. Some of the books include Her Golden Eyes, Fire in the Night and Double Solitaire. Under the series Southern Comfort, three books were released in the two years of 1988 and 1989.

Lacey Dancer also wrote as Sydney Clary Ann and had three novels published. They were Undercover Affair, The Duchess and the Devil and Misfit Match. She began publishing under her real name from 1990s. Some of her work includes St. James Saga as a series and a collection of ten novels. In 2003, she wrote Many Faces of Love. She has authored in excess of thirty books in her decades of writing.
