The book was good but not riveting. Likeable characters. A bit predictable.

This is not the author for me. I had a hard time with the book, the plot was skipped in alot of places and the characters were uninteresting for me. I didn't even finish it.

Crystal Clark travels from Georgia to visit her aunt Kat who owns a cattle ranch in beautiful Yampa Valley, CO. Crystal meets the rugged ranch foreman, Luke Weber, and immediately personalities and upbringings set them apart. The local people know little about Southern graces and are unsure of Crystal. Will life's challenges and tradegies thrust Crystal and Luke together or send Crystal back to her Southern society? I know when I am captured by a novel when I am visualizing the scenery, getting angry or cold when the characters are, seeing the truth of their lives through events that occur. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Absolutely wonderful! I will be reading more of Maggie Brendan's novels!

When I saw the cover of this book, I was very excited to read it. However, it turned out to be a very corny, mushy story. There was no plot and the characters were very shallow. I did not enjoy this book and I doubt if I will read Maggie Brendan's books again.

If I hadn't already bought all three books in the series, I wouldn't have ordered another one. However, in the second and third books of the seriess, I would give a much higher rating because those books seem to have much more interesting plots.

Maggie Brendans No Place for a Lady is an inspirational and spiritual novel set in the historical west, full of real characters you come to root for and love. Brendan creates three-dimensional people of strength without masking their faults, making it easy for the readers of this novel to identify with the characters thoughts, ambitions, and trials. At several points Brendans humor had me laughing aloud, and more than once the realistic depictions of the arduousness of life in turn-of-the-century Colorado had me crying too. Under Brendans skillful pen, the West comes alive and makes us regret our inability to experience it first-handlucky for us, No Place for a Lady captures with historical accuracy the lives of ordinary people asking themselves the questions and experiencing the joys and pains of life that still resonate today. I would recommend this book to fans of westerns, Christian novels, and to all readers who seek a thoroughly engaging and beautifully written story. I cannot wait to read the second book in this series, The Jewel of His Heart.

Maggie Brendans debut novel, No Place for a Lady, combines many elements that make for a great historical read: a pampered Southern belle, an ambitious cowboy on her aunts cattle ranch, love interests who come between them, tragedy, conflicts and surprises. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Colorado Rockies, the story begins when Crystal Clark arrives at her Aunt Kates spread following the death of her father. Thrust into the rigors of life in the West, Crystal struggles to discover Gods plan for her future. Does she embrace this new adventure and admit her attraction to her aunts rugged, hardworking ranch foreman, Luke Weber, or return to Georgia where she knows what to expect and whats expected of her?Luke wants a ranch of his own, and marrying the local cattle barons daughter will give him that. But first, he has to get the cattle to market with the so-called help of Crystal, Kates seemingly fragile and yet feisty niece whos captured his attention. Torn between following his dream and heeding the call of his heart, he struggles to find answers. Only when he looks to the Lord for them is peace possible.Discovering a new writer whose work I enjoy is a treat. Brendan has earned a place on my Sure-to-please Authors list. I like her characters, her heartwarming tale and her storytelling ability. Im looking forward to the second book in her Heart of the West series when readers will discover what the future holds for a secondary character who was dealt a blow in No Place for a Lady.

I have been ordering books from CBD for about 20 years. During this time I have read through every book some Authors have written. I read the description of the book from the catalog to determine if I think I would like this book. I was quite pleased when I noticed Maggie Brendan as a new author to me. "No place for a Lady" caught my eye and I ordered it. I read late into the night to try to finish it in 2 nights. I will surely be looking for other books by this author. The characters became very close to my heart.

Although the story line was good, I found the interactions of the main characters somewhat juvenile, more like teenagers than adults. I would have liked the characters to have more depth.

Overall Rating:

Having a plot line that starts and grows with tragedy, this is a novel that grabs your heart and makes you silently or even sometimes verbally cheer on the heroine to succeed at her current goal. Maggie Brendan has done well with her first novel and I definitely look forward to more. This is easily one of those stories where you are screaming for the characters to see what you as a reader are seeing. There are times where I thought something would come out differently, but with the story coming to a close I could not have imagined anything better than the way it was itself. I cannot wait for the next book in the series!!

Oh, what a fun read! Maggie Brendan is a new author who will lasso your heart right out the gate with her debut novel, No Place for a Lady, where Southern charm happily collides with the Wild West. The first novel in Ms. Brendans Heart of the West series, No Place for a Lady unfolds the story of Southern belle, Crystal Clark, who leaves the gentility of the Old South to head west to her aunts Colorado cattle ranch after the death of her father. What she finds is the rugged beauty of the Colorado highcountry, along with a dangerously handsome cowboy who is as wild and unpredictable as this rugged country that has captured her heart. With vivid imagery, heart-tugging romance and a feel for the old West that will jangle your spurs, Maggie Brendan is definitely an author to watch and read over and over again.

I loved this book and would recommend it to anyone. Maggie Brendan not only brought the characters to life and made you feel as if you knew them but she brought the territory, the cattle drive, the life in that part of the country all to life as well. The relationships and vivid descriptions of every aspect of the book kept me hooked from page 1 to the end. I can't wait for the next book in the series. Maggie Brendan can hold her own and I have no doubt she'll become a well known author.

Westerns have never been my first choice for reading, but the twist of bringing the old South to Colorado ranching territory caught my attention. I'm glad it did. I very much enjoyed this book. I love details and Maggie Brendan supplied the right details to make me feel like I took a trip to the Colorado Rockies. The approaching winter snow, the ruggedness of a trial drive, the differences between Georgia and Colorado - all made this a delightful read. Also, the characters are memorable and suprising at times. Knowing I get to continue reading about this people makes me look forward to the next books. Enjoy!
