I'm afraid Maggie didn't really do much for me. The story itself was well done, but Maggie was just too over the top for me. I think Nora Roberts has a hard time finding a good balance between tough, smart, independent heroine and idiot heroine who cuts off her nose to spite her face. Unfortunately Maggie fell into the latter category for me.<BR/><BR/>My favorite of the 3 is definitely Born in Ice. I love Brianna. ;)Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01182390014214738550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608029603869554523.post-69903393274440180942008-08-21T13:45:00.000+00:002008-08-21T13:45:00.000+00:00Oh thank you Wendy!!

I had the...Never fear Ana, I'm here to rescue you! I had the same reaction to Born in Fire you did. Maggie was just too....much. For me at least. Now Brianna's story? I loved it - and I think it will work better for you too, <I>but</I> the story that stood out for me was book 3, Born In Shame. Murphy is the hero in that book, and he's just about the dreamiest beta hero ever.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608029603869554523.post-36171153084961203382008-08-21T11:33:00.000+00:002008-08-21T11:33:00.000+00:00Same for me, you know how much I love Maggie.:) Sh...Same for me, you know how much I love Maggie.:) She's honest and tough and I do think she's generous and sensitive, but in a much obvious way than Brianna. When you hear all your life you were a mistake and you are the favorite recipient of your mother's venom, a very thick skin is necessary to survive. Maggie tries so hard to hide her feelings and cares only about her work, because she thinks she would never be able to have a relationship with someone. I'll wait to see what you think of Brianna's book. I'm with Marg and Rosario, she gets a bit on my nerves.:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608029603869554523.post-16303231372866453142008-08-21T11:25:00.000+00:002008-08-21T11:25:00.000+00:00I knew I wasn't going with the popular opinion on ...I knew I wasn't going with the popular opinion on this one! ;-)Seccionistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14412042139824865664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4608029603869554523.post-31684383563987086302008-08-21T09:28:00.000+00:002008-08-21T09:28:00.000+00:00If I am going to choose between the three sisters ...If I am going to choose between the three sisters then I go with Maggie too.

It's nice (as is the third one), but for me, Born in Fire was just amazing. I loved Maggie... NR's tough cookie heroines really do it for me. Brianna kind of irritated me *shrugs*. I do agree with you about Tom Concannon, though. Maggie's completely blind when it comes to him, IMO.Rosariohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13015659149421085931noreply@blogger.com
