Lie for a Million by Janet Dailey
Everything is bigger in Texas, from the vast stretch of sky to the rattlesnakes--and for one prestigious family, that means outsized drama, passions, and scandal following the murder of the wealthy patriarch . . .Yellowstone meets Dallas against the backdrop of Texas horse country in this soapy saga for fans of Linda Lael Miller, Danielle Steel, and Diana Palmer.
Lila Culhane's life is in turmoil. As if coping with the murder of her husband isn't enough, now the glamorous young widow has Frank's even younger mistress to contend with. His pregnant mistress. Crystal. But Lila hasn't got time for more heartache. With everyone grasping to profit from Frank's death, including fighting for possession of her beloved ranch, she needs leverage for the battle.
As it turns out, Crystal may be carrying just the edge Lila requires: an heir. Crystal offers to let Lila adopt Frank's baby--for a price. Lila is willing to consider it--pending a paternity test. Until then, she'll focus on her role in the upcoming high-stakes Run for a Million reining competition, and her ranch manager--and lover--Roper McKenna.
Rugged, hardworking, and talented, Roper is finally getting his dream to ride in the prized competition. Lila expects he'll choose the Culhane's legendary stallion, One in a Million, as his mount. But when he considers other offers, she finds herself questioning his loyalty . . .
Meanwhile, Detective Sam Rafferty's list of suspects in Frank's murder is growing. Besides Roper and Lila, Frank's bitter first wife and his sparring extended family, there are adversarial neighbors, ex-lovers, and perhaps even the woman Sam loves--Frank's own pampered daughter, Jasmine. And as the surprises multiply, a killer remains free to strike again--if these rivals don't kill each other first . . .

Allyson Charles lives in Northern California. A former attorney, she happily ditched those suits and now works in her pajamas writing about men's briefs instead of legal briefs. When she's not writing, she's probably engaged in one of her favorite hobbies: napping, eating, or martial arts (That last one almost makes up for the first two, right?). One of Ally's greatest disappointments is living in a state that doesn't have any Cracker Barrels in it. You can find her at www.allysoncharles.com or on Twitter @authallysoncharles. Award-winning author Stacey Keith doesn't own a television, but reads compulsively--and would, in fact, go stark raving bonkers without books, most of which are crammed into every corner of the house. She lives with her jazz musician boyfriend in Civita Castellana, a medieval village in Italy that sits atop a cliff, and she spends her days writing in a nearby abandoned 13th century church. But the two things she is most proud of are her ability to cook pasta alla matriciana without burning down the kitchen and swearing volubly in Italian with all the appropriate hand gestures.
