More About This Book

Overview

Nothing in her past had prepared her for a Colorado cattle drive--or Luke Weber.

Longing for a new start, Crystal Clark arrives amid the splendor of the high country in June 1892. After the death of her father, Crystal is relieved to be leaving the troubles of her Georgia life behind to visit her aunt's cattle ranch. Despite being raised as a proper Southern belle, Crystal is determined to hold her own in this wild land--even if a certain handsome foreman named Luke doubts her abilities.

Just when she thinks she's getting a handle on the constant male attention from the cowhands and the catty barbs from some of the local young women, tragedy strikes. And saving the ranch from a greedy neighboring landowner means taking charge of a cattle drive, ready or not. Can she rise to the challenge? Or will she head back to Georgia defeated?

"Grab your hat and hold on to the reins for an exciting ride! An exciting historical novel by a rising new author."--DiAnn Mills, author of When the Nile Runs Red, Beyond the Memories, Awaken My Heart, and Lightning and Lace

"This gentle romance set amongst the rugged beauty of the Colorado foothills will warm a reader's heart."--Kim Vogel Sawyer, bestselling author of My Heart Remembers and the Sommerfeld Trilogy

    Can a Colorado cowboy be tamed by a Georgia peach?

    Miss Brendans style of writing transported me to Colorado, to where I felt as if I was at Aspengold. The characters seemed so real that I feel as if I made new friends that I can't wait to visit again. Different events in the book either made me cry, smile, or drop my jaw and exclaim, "What?!" I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a romance novel with adventure mixed in with it.

    I could not put this book or the sequel down.

    I liked this book because the stage was set from the beginning. It held my attention throughout the entire book. I could identify with a girl going somewhere totally out of her element and learning to pick up the culture. I thought the way the main character learned to find out who how to survive and keep the principles she based her life on was refreshing.

    I liked that this book kept me interested and that I could recommend it as well in content to my teenage nieces for a good wholesome read with the characters actually having character!

    Loved It!

    Maggie Brendan's 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 Brendan's 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 Brendan's skillful pen, the West comes alive and makes us regret our inability to experience it first-hand-lucky 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.

    This reminded me of an unwelcome church meeting.

    I read this book because I like historical romance, however what I got was an ongoing prayer meeting. Not only was it preachy, I found it highly unrealistic and underwhelming.

    Wonderful Story

    I enjoyed this story, and its story line...I'm a hopeless romantic and I fully enjoy fun, loveable tales such as this one. If you love this book you will love the others. I have them on paperback and the second is my absolute favorite!

    Thank you Maggie Brenan!

    This is a must read if u enjoy 1890 ish westerns, adventure, a great love story. The book has harsh conditions, is beautifully written, sad at times, and a good spiritual feel to it. The characters are well developed, the plot is unique, and for a change no sex. I highly recommend this novel and plan to read the rest of the series.

    Clean story with strong characters:)

    I enjoyed the story, the setting, the characters. It was a relief to read a book that had characters who developed a relationship without hopping into bed with each other. I would have preferred a little less preachiness, but overall it's an enjoyable read.
