Daniel Reece is a successful, worldly, businessman. He's raising Arabian horses and comes to Denver for an auction where Blake wants to buy a horse named Allegree for his wife Krystle. 

Daniel knows, when a husband buys expensive present for his wife, it's a sign their marriage is in trouble, and he gets interested in the Carringtons. It looks like Daniel and Krystle know each other from the time he was involved with her sister Iris and Krystle will reveal he's Sammy Jo's real father. Unfortunately, by the time he has gone, Iris has died and Frank Dean has always taught Sammy Jo to be his and not Daniel's daughter. 

Knowing Daniel is eager after Krystle's affection more than ever, Blake gets into a fight with him on a plane but, luckily for them, they both survive the plane crash. On the other hand,  Krystle ain't impassive and she'll have a hard time resisting her feelings for Daniel though she's blaming him for his way of handling Iris's life. 

He and Dex will return to their old, secret activities as veterans of the elite army forces, serving in many interventions in countries around the world. Even so, after one mission Daniel is killed leaving the Delta Rho farm as well as all his wealth to his daughter Sammy Jo whom he has met  for the first time in New York - just day or two before his death.
