The Trouble with Lacy Brown?, September 21, 2005
This review is from: The Trouble with Lacy Brown (Mule Hollow Matchmakers, Book 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
It simply was not long enough. The story was a delight and I immediately wanted to know more about the other characters. Hopefully, this is the first book of a series and Lacy is a repeating character. One thing that really impressed me was the research into locations. Usually, non-Texans get about half the details wrong when they are writing about this huge state. Debra Clopton had done her homework. Great good fun!

This review is from: The Trouble with Lacy Brown (Mule Hollow Matchmakers, Book 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
When hairstylist Lacy Brown reads the advertisement that Mule Hollow, Texas, is long on men and short on women, she decides to take matters into her own hands. She isn't looking for a husband, no, God sent her on a mission to style the hair of the women who are! So Lacy buys a building and prepares to start up her own business.
Cattleman Clint Matlock locks horns with Lacy the moment he runs into her. Literally. Even though there is no way anyone can miss the bright pink Cadillac she drives, he plows into the rear of it, and Lacy manages to talk her way clear of an insurance claim. But Clint is used to upbeat, beautiful women who worm their way into someone's heart and then leave, and he is determined not to allow Lacy to get close.
Lacy seems determined to be trouble--with a capital T. First she paints her old building hot pink, causing the town to gawk in surprise. Then her pink caddy breaks down in the middle of the night and there are cattle rustlers out there. . . Clint doesn't dare leave her alone for anything! Who knows what other mess Clint will have to rescue troublesome Lacy Brown from?
Oh wow. I totally loved THE TROUBLE WITH LACY BROWN from page one! Lacy is upbeat and humorous and totally adorable! Clint is a typical male, determined to fix things--even things that don't need fixing. Even though I normally don't care much for Texas cowboy stories (I think they are too overdone) I thoroughly loved this book. I can't find anything negative to say about it. It is laugh out loud funny all the way through.
THE TROUBLE WITH LACY BROWN is a wonderful, page-turning read. Definitely one of the best Love Inspired romances that I read so far this year. This is Debra Clopton's first book, and I am definitely looking forward to reading more of her work. $4.99. 252 pages.

Clopton's Lacy a Winner!, September 29, 2005

I found the charcters in Debra Clopton's first book to be engaging, the plotline fun and the story well written. For a first novel, this is a winner, and we can look forward to some great stories from Ms. Clopton.
Way to go, Debra!
