He's had centuries to dream of her...
Mis-adventurous historian Bree Kirkland discovers a one hundred fifty year old
warrior buried in a crypt behind her house. But Faelan, the warrior, isn’t
dead. When this chauvinistic Scottish Warrior awakes, he has no choice but
accept the help of this modern-day woman who’s rescued him, but she’s more
fearsome than the demon trying to kill him. If he’s not careful, she’ll uncover
every secret his clan has bled and died to protect.

But seriously I was hook from the first page and didn’t put
it down till I was through with the whole book. This exceptional book
introduced me to my love of historical paranormal reading and I will be forever grateful
that it was so well written that my thirst for more kept me going during the
worse part of my illness.
The second thing about this book is when I got better I
started traveling, sewing costumes for entertainment. This created a need, so I
bought my first Nook and from that day forward my life has changed drastically
because I could pre-order my books and impatiently wait for them to become
available.
I am enthralled by Ms. Clenney’s way of describing scenery
and people without being boring. I can feel what she is describing like I
am right there. I love the richness of her words where you can smell the air,
feel the time vault, etc....
Bree is one gutsy lady. I love her mixture of bravery then
fearfulness showing that even the brave can be afraid. Bree definitely is
someone I would like to be. She is curious and unafraid to search for things to
get answers. Bree sure loves to run full steam ahead into everything including
danger. Though she drives Faelan crazy because he is an old fashion
chauvinistic sweetheart, she will keep you amused with her antics. I really
need to be honest even the men of this generation would have a hard time with
Bree.
Poor hunky Faelan wants Bree so bad but is trying to treat her with careful
gentlemanly manners even when he worries about if she is a demon. He has
no idea of what to do with Bree, a modern spunky woman or how to keep her safe.
He tries unsuccessfully to keep her safe and he constantly has to beware so she
won’t figure out his clan’s secret. This would surely drive any man crazy.
This book
introduces some very hot secondary Highland Warriors characters that will be
featured in future books. And I believe you will fall in love with the very
sexy Ronan who is one of my favorites. Another secondary character intrigues me,
Tristol one of the demons of old, the ancient ones, and I can’t wait to see how
his character progresses through the Warrior series.
This is a series
well worth reading.

The first time I read this book was when it came out in
2011. I was really sick and spent all my time reading books. I was sold on the
cover and the blurb. Also being a descendent from the clan Moffat and having
lived there for a short time I love all things Scotland.
But seriously I was hook from the first page and didn’t put it down till I was through with the whole book. This exceptional book introduced me to my love of historical paranormal reading and I will be forever grateful that it was so well written that my thirst for more kept me going during the worse part of my illness.

Jamie: Shadow of a Highland Warrior ~ my review Amazon ~ Buy
My name is Anita Clenney and I write Mysteries and Paranormal Romantic Suspense. I’ve worked in a pickle factory (picture Lucy and Ethel, hair nets and all--lasted half a day), a preschool, booked shows for Aztec Fire Dancers, been a Secretary, Executive Assistant, and a Realtor, and through it all, I’ve been in love. Sometimes it was wonderful, sometimes it hurt so bad I could hardly breathe. Then I found Mr. Right, and the two of us multiplied into a family of four. We live in Virginia, not far from Washington, DC, where we are slaves to a white Boxer named Lily, who thinks we live and breathe to buy new stuff for her to chew up. My husband is a Network Architect, and it’s a good thing because technology doesn’t like me. My son plans to be a famous hockey or football player, and my daughter will probably figure out a way to rule the world.
With scenes rolling nonstop in my head and my feet rarely on the ground, I should have realized that I was born to write much earlier in life, but alas, no. Not until I was on the wrong side of 40 did I hear the keyboard calling me. But then I tend to do things backwards.
When I decided to wrestle the stories in my imagination and dreams onto the page, my husband and kids encouraged me all the way. Even when I was in the middle of a heated battle with warriors and demons and forgot that people in the real world had to eat dinner and that dishes didn’t wash themselves, still my family supported me. Finally it paid off. After three years, eleven months and twenty-two days, I got THE CALL from my wonderful agent Christine Witthohn of Book Cents Literary Agency, who is really Wonder Woman in disguise. A publisher wanted to buy my story. MY STORY!!! Not just one, but three of them. A new journey begins and I hope you’ll join me for the ride.
Some of my favorite things:
God -- Family (greatest family in the world) -- Diamonds (ooh la la, do I love diamonds) -- Blue Jeans -- Interior Decorating (I admit I have a fetish for beautiful mirrors) -- Trees and Summer breezes (there’s nothing better than the wind whispering in the leaves on a warm, summer day, especially if you're curled up with a book) -- Reading -- Shopping for bargains (I buy so many they’re no longer a bargain. Can you say one in every color please?) -- Junk food (trying to control that but not having much luck) -- The TV show LOST -- Loreena McKennitt’s music -- Mysteries and Romance… of course -- And my fabulous editing partner, writer Dana Rodgers, another of my favorite things. I don’t know what I’d do without her.
