Good Water by Kayt Peck The dry plains drew Judy Proctor like a bear to her den…or a moth to the flame. Ranching was her life. The sweat as she branded or “doctored” cattle…the howl of a coyote in the quiet, night air ... half-frozen fingers as she cut the wire to loosen hay bales for hungry cattle scratching for survival in snow-covered land…all of the everyday existence on the ranch was her life. It was where she belonged. It was a lonely life. She had tried to leave the ranch to join the “normal” existence of a talented young woman in the city, but it had never been home. When her parents were killed in an automobile accident, she returned to the family ranch as much because she needed it as it needed her. She faced a lonely life to be shared with no better company than Somegood and Useless, her cow dog and the mottled mutt that were her companions. Kathleen Romero slipped into Judy’s life unexpectedly. She came to the plains to write a story. Would she stay because of the real truth she found in the simple drama of husbanding land and animals? Unfortunately, even wide-open spaces can be plagued by prejudice and closed-minds. As the two women struggle to know each other, they must also carve a place for themselves among the country-folk who have been Judy’s friends and neighbors her entire life.

Synopsis for Dawn Of The Deb by Laurie Moore When Dainty Prescott, privileged socialite, last year’s debutante, broadcast journalist for WBFD-TV, and owner of the Debutante Detective Agency accepts and squanders a retainer from oil baron Avery Marshall, she becomes obligated to groom Avery’s socially awkward stepdaughter, Dawn, for the upcoming, über -exclusive Rubanbleu ball.  To kick off her training, Avery sends Dainty, her sister Teensy, and Dainty’s friends Salem and Venice for a spa weekend with Dawn at a west Texas resort. But the trip goes terribly wrong when the girls witness killers storm the lodge and execute the owners and staff. Authorities wonder if the murders are the result of a drug deal gone bad; Dainty suspects her jailed stepmother hired hit men to kill her and Teensy to prevent them from testifying at her upcoming murder trial. Fleeing the killers on their trail, the women retreat to Daisy’s grandmother’s mansion.  Then Dainty discovers that Dawn is mentally ill and un-medicated, making her just as dangerous as the men they’re running from. Chopper Deke, WBFD’s helicopter pilot, offers them his home with a panic room, but celebutant Dainty and her socialites must move quickly to unravel the reason behind the resort murders, while staying one step ahead of four men in black ski masks who want them dead.
