Jack Mercy's three daughters are strangers to each other, but to inherit his huge ranch they must live there together for a year -- a year that will bring them together against a terrifying unknown enemy as well as bringing each of them someone to make their dreams sweeter. A rich, stunning story of family, death, and love. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Publishers Weekly
Having published 100 novels in 15 years, Roberts (True Betrayals) just keeps getting better. In life, Jack Mercy, owner of the 25,000-acre Mercy Ranch, garnered more enemies than friends. His death promises to do the same, since his will forces his three grown daughters, half-sisters and virtual strangers to one another, to live together at the Montana ranch for a year or forfeit his estate, worth up to $20 million. If any die during the year, the survivor(s) will inherit the fortune, assuming they last the 12 months. Giving it a go are bossy Willa, part Blackfoot Indian, the only sister who lived on the ranch and is capable of running it; Tess, a sassy Hollywood scriptwriter who wants money but balks at a family reunion; and meek, divorced Lily, grateful for refuge. As the siblings settle in, someone begins committing barbaric acts against animals and then humans: Are these the random crimes of a psychopath? Or are they a devious distraction in a sinister game plan? Roberts balances the tension and sometimes gruesome action with three romances, crackling dialogue and a snappy infusion of humor. Setting her rich narrative against majestic scenery integral to the plot, she again demonstrates why, in 1986, she was the first author inducted into the Romance Writers of America's Hall of Fame. 150,000 first printing; $200,000 ad/promo; Literary Guild featured alternate; author tour.

Got this at books galore on 20th.
I didn't get to watch all of the lifetime movie... my daughter decided she had other plan for me... and I knew the book would be much better.
I had been dying to get my hands on it for a week, so I just stopped by books galore, I figured they would have it, and I was right, granted she had to dig thru tons of books for the one copy she knew she had, but its in my hot little hands now, and I'm burning up the pages. :)
Title: Montana Sky
Author:Nora Roberts
My Area of Interest: Lifetime did some Nora Roberts books into movies, and this one looked really good, and I wanted to watch it. So, I put off watching it until I read the book.
Castaway - I hated it. I just couldn't get thru it! I would much rather watch the damn movie.
