Winners from the Mystic Cowboy/Real Cowboy Blog Tour!

Okay, so I’ve been blogging for…two months. And I fully intended to give away prizes, I really did. But I was writing. And doing readings. And signings. And writing. Did I mention the writing? 

Yeah. 

STILL available!

In other words, I never got around to picking winners from the blog tour I’ve been on since…January.

I’ll be emailing winners who left addresses (this is why you should leave your emails, people). Thank you so much to everyone who played along and/or was patient with me! 


And while I’m here, thank you SO much for helping make A Real Cowboy such an amazing success! It’s been a stunning three weeks and I’m just amazed at how much love you guys have shown the book! So, from the bottom of my heart, Thank You!

I’ll be off the radar for a bit–writing, you know–but I’ll be checking in as I prepare for RT in Kansas City! I hope to see you there to help me celebrate the release of Straddling the Line!

Welcoming A Real Cowboy into the world!

 Indiebound |  B & N 

Hooray! A Real Cowboy is downloading today! The physical paper books will be available on Feb. 5th, but you can read him now!

Gosh, I tell you–just look at that stubble. He’s my stubble-iest hero to date! Here’s the blurb for A Real Cowboy:

Now that she’s found him, how can she let go?

Producer Thalia Thorne’s career is on the line. She’s promised to lure James Robert Bradley back to the limelight, no matter what it takes. But once in Montana, she sees that J.R. has built a new life for himself–as a real-life cowboy–and Thalia finds it hard to resist the man he’s become….

Then a blizzard strikes. Suddenly they’re alone, with only body heat to keep them warm.When the snow melts, she’ll have to choose: go back to the big city–or sacrifice everything for the man she can’t let go.

Also, remember last week, when I had an interview on Show Me St. Louis? Here’s the video!

Soooo cool! I love the voice over–don’t you?

Four More Days Until Mystic Cowboy!

Soon, my precious, soon!

Now that we’ve survived Christmas and cleaned up the aftermath (uh, we have cleaned up the aftermath, right? No? Don’t feel bad–me neither), I can focus on what comes next–Mystic Cowboy! 

Rebel Runs Fast is going to be out on New Year’s Day–Jan. 1st! I’m so excited! Don’t forget to get your copy–the reviews are coming in! Here’s from RT Book Reviews:

 Four Stars! Both generosity and greed play an important part in this love story where the tension mounts as illness threatens the entire reservation. Excellent character development is the highlight of Anderson’s tale — Madeline and Rebel are often at odds as Rebel struggles to maintain his heritage and lifestyle while keeping Madeline by his side.

 Here’s where you can get your copy: Amazon | Powell’s | Indiebound | B &N | Samhain

Stay tuned for more information about the giveaway and the blog tour! It all kicks off on January 1st–starting 2013 with a bang this year!

Bittersweet Accolades for A Man of Privilege

I’m so excited!

Sara, the Harlequin Junkie, named A Man of Privilege one of the Top 10 Harlequins of 2012!

I’m so excited about this! Privilege came out in July and I’m so thrilled that readers and reviewers are still remembering James and Maggie.

This is extra-special to me because I dedicated it, in part, to my Gram, who died the day it was released on July 4th. I received my author copies six weeks before she passed, so she had plenty of time to tell everyone about ‘her’ book.

I’ve been missing my Gram a lot today as I wrote Christmas cards. Gram was a fanatic about her cards. She kept a running tally of how many she’d received and announced the total–often over seventy, occasionally up to 90–to anyone who stood still long enough to listen at both Christmas and her birthday. I think it was her way of letting everyone know that, even though she was very old, she had not been forgotten. People remembered her, by God, and you should, too!

I’m so glad ‘her’ book is the one people remember, the one people loved. Because I know I’ll never forget her.

And you shouldn’t, either.

An RT Reviewers’ Choice Award Nominee!

Order: Amazon | Powell’s
  Indiebound | B & N 

GREAT News! I’m so excited!

A Man of Privilege was nominated for Best Desire book! RT Book Reviews hosts the annual Reviewers’ Choice Awards presentation at their Book Lovers Convention–and A Man of Privilege was nominated! You can read all about it here.

What makes this even more exciting is that I’ve already planned to go to the Convention next year–it’ll be in Kansas City, MO, which is only 4 1/2 hours from my house! I’ll be going with my friend The Lovely Mary, so we’ll get to go to the award presentation and she’ll take pictures (something I might forget to do otherwise).

Yipppeeeeee! I’m so thrilled about this!
