As most of you know, I started writing a few years ago. I had no idea what I was doing, other than I wanted to write a story. I worked hard, learned a lot, made a lot of mistakes, learned some more, got representation by the fabulous Christine Witthohn, and now our hard work has finally paid off. Awaken the Highland Warrior is almost here. In fact, Amazon has already shipped out orders, and Borders is expecting it in store any day!

AWAKEN THE HIGHLAND WARRIOR is the debut novel in a new series by Ms. Clenney. This is one of the best books I have read in a while. All I can say is Oh My Gosh, I want more. You get a series full of action, good vs. evil scenarios and romance. Plus don’t forget the hot, sexy, and kilted Highlanders. This author could very well become one of my favorites. I read this in one night. If I could have given it a higher rating I would. Look for the next book; EMBRACE THE HIGHLAND WARRIOR coming in November 2011. – Night Owl Reviews
"A riveting story full of mystery, demons and hot Scottish Highland Warriors!"
I enjoyed this story so much I can't put it into words. The characters are colorful, gorgeous, and most entertaining. The excitement and suspense kept me turning pages way beyond my bedtime and first thing in the morning! This is a really great read with a fantastic plot and imagination to keep the keenest mind entertained. A definite keeper by Anita Clenney. This is the first of her novels I have had the pleasure of reading, but I can guarantee it will not be my last. – Fresh Fiction

Anita, congrats -- this is so great! I think it's wonderful to have this kind of validation. We always need something to keep us going when the writing gives us a hard time, and this is perfect. :) Enjoy it.
Thanks Donna. This is exactly why I started writing. I'm storing these up against the bad ones that are bound to come in. :)
Congrats Anita. Looks like another for my TBR pile
Oh good. I can get it for my Kindle
I would kill for reviews like that, Anita!! Pat yourself on the back, GF. And I got my copy of ATHW in the mail yesterday. Can't wait to dig into it.
Thanks Lindsay. Yep, it's on Kindle too.
You got it Liz! Yay! I'm thrilled with the reviews so far. Fingers crossed that it continues.
Anita!! This is so so so wonderful. Reviews don't come without merit. You've earned every word that's been written about you. Now, what comes next??
Thanks Cassy. Next is Embrace the Highland Warrior coming November 2011. I'm actually sending in the revised copy edits today.
Next week, I'm have the booksigning with Nora Roberts, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Kristan Higgins (such a sweet person) and some other great authors. Then I'm focusing on book three, Unleash the Highland Warrior. I know, the publisher wants all these catchy titles. And I also have to finish the mystery I'm writing. So busy times.
Nice! Your reviews are fantastic, Anita! Can't wait until the book comes out.
Thanks Kari. I know you're going to get great reviews on your mystery when it comes out.
I just saw on Amazon that there's only four left in stock, but more reordered. Gee, either they're selling like hotcakes or they didn't order enough. Fingers crossed for hotcakes.
I just pre-ordered the book for my Kindle
Bless you Lindsay!! Let me know what you think.
Thanks but I didn't sneeze. Of course I'll let you know but I don't think I could write a better review than gas already been written
LOL. I'd still like to know what you think.
