Extended description

Lies, lies, too many lies ... Former bestselling author Jane Dough washes her hands of her wacky family's deceptive ways. But when a disastrous situation with her homeowners' association threatens Jane's newfound security, she reverts to family misbehavior and blurts out a lie that she's advertising for a husband to help her out of her jam. It's just one little lie to get everyone off her back, so no harm done, right?

Wrong! Someone runs a Husband Wanted ad in Jane's name, and now she's stuck with the consequences of her lie, even though she has no intention of getting married. Meanwhile, there's that little business of losing her property if she doesn't bring it into conformance before the deadline, and with every step forward, she takes two back.

And one is a misstep that leads her smack into the middle of a murder.

Either Jane is the unluckiest girl in the world or bad luck is getting good help. Surely not from Mark and Sue, her two best friends, or from the drop-dead gorgeous doctor who comes bearing gifts. And that sexy new neighbor, a hunk of a Texan cowboy, must be on her side. It's a shame she can't tell the truth about what's really going on, but that doesn't give everyone else the right to lie, does it?

Well, maybe it does. Or maybe not. Or maybe Jane just doesn't know the rules...of lying.
