Utopia Texas by Betty Byrd (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Utopia Texas by Betty Byrd Are wealth and status worth the price-when that price is your own daughter? Author Betty Byrd has seen it all-including drilling her very own oil well! She now brings her unique vision and experience to Utopia Texas, a riveting tale of Brya Harrison, a woman created by chance and circumstance. Part gambler, part geologist, Brya knows that in the West Texas oil country upbringing may not matter, but status is everything. She has worked hard to secure her position, but she finds her plans unravel when she discovers that her daughter, Olivia, is somehow "different," and is forced to face the unfathomable-one startling revelation at a time. Drawn into a maelstrom of events fueled by her daughters indiscretions, Brya sets out to cover each one up-whatever the cost. But will she be able to combat the demons plaguing her daughter as skillfully as she is able to face down her competition in the cutthroat world of big oil? In this stunning follow-up to the authors debut novel, Trinitys Daughter, Betty Byrd has woven a brilliant tale of wealth, greed, love, and the pursuit of power-and how one particular woman holds her own in the male-dominated oil business. "Big oil, big land, and larger-than-life characters all spell Texas. Utopia Texas is Texana at its most raw. And in the end, its most redemptive." -Susan Mary Malone, author, By the Book "Betty Byrd has created a story that is as intense as an oil well fire-volatile and explosive. Utopia Texas will make you feel as if you lived it, while being forever thankful you didnt." - J.D. Smith, host of Pursuing the Blues, KCLAFM.com, Los Angeles, California "The oil field has its share of personalities that are larger than life. Fueled by strong wills and old-fashioned guts in order to face the unthinkable, Byrds Utopia Texas is compulsively readable." -Bill Bledsoe, Petroleum Engineer, Fort Worth, Texas FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Details ISBN1432718746 Author Betty Byrd Short Title UTOPIA TEXAS Pages 320 Publisher Outskirts Press Language English ISBN-10 1432718746 ISBN-13 9781432718749 Media Book Format Hardcover Year 2008 Residence Rancho Santa Fe, CA DEWEY FIC Imprint Outskirts Press Country of Publication United States Illustrations Illustrations, black and white DOI 10.1604/9781432718749 UK Release Date 2008-03-06 AU Release Date 2008-03-06 NZ Release Date 2008-03-06 US Release Date 2008-03-06 Publication Date 2008-03-06 Audience General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
