Shade's Fall Release Date
I decided to prove that contrary to an opinion being spread on Facebook, that Shade’s Fall is not a Urban Legend, nor as far as I can tell, have we entered the Twilight Zone :). To provide this proof, I will be releasing Shade’s Fall, March 21st.

Shade’s Fall is the longest and definitely the most emotional of my books, but Lily’s story deserved the best job I could do and I hope I achieved that goal. Lily’s story is hard for me to release, my daughter jokes that I would keep it on my computer if I could, and she’s probably right. Shade’s Fall has been special to me from the beginning, in one scene Lily is running down a pathway and I could see her running in my mind with her hair and dress blowing. I really wanted to convey to the readers how special Lily is inside and out. My predicament with Shade’s Fall was to create beauty, despite it’s difficult subject matter; to show everyone that life is a beautiful beautiful thing despite the hardships we encounter in life. I’m sure everyone will let me know if I succeeded or failed. Lol.
I will be working on reediting Soul of a Woman, which I will be releasing soon. I’ll keep everyone posted, but I’m thinking late April. I plan to start writing on my next book next week, so I guess I need to pick who it will be. I think several of you might have some new picks after Shade’s book. When I decide, I’ll make a post on Facebook.
I want to sincerely thank everyone for their condolences on my brother’s passing, your thoughts and prayers meant a great deal to my family and me.
Thanks again,
Jamie Begley

Teaser for Shade's Fall
Hi,
I wanted to let all of Shade’s fans know that his book is in the editing process, so it shouldn’t be much longer. If you have not read The VIP Room Series be aware there are spoilers ahead….
*Spoiler*
By now, I guess most of you know that Tainted provided an insight of who Lily was. This was a hard secret to keep, from the moment I wrote Razer’s Ride I saw where Lily’s story was headed, that’s why I had to write the others first, so that Lily could have the ending she deserved.
Now about Shade’s Fall, this book definitely discusses difficult subject matter, and I certainly don’t want to offend anyone, so please make sure you read all the warnings before purchasing the book. As I wrote Lily’s story, I knew I had high expectations from those of you patiently waiting for Shade’s Fall. I hope that at the least it doesn’t disappoint, because I appreciate all of you going along for the ride with me. To tide everyone over to the release, I’m placing a small teaser on my Facebook page. The reason I have not gave a release date yet is because my eldest brother passed away this week, and out of respect I want to wait a couple of weeks before releasing Shade’s Fall. As soon as I decide the date, I promise my fans will be the first to know.
In the next couple of weeks, I will be going back over a book I wrote a couple of years ago, which I plan to be my next release. Soul of a Woman took me a long time to write. I began writing it right after Soul of a Man. It took me over a year to write, during which both my mother and brother passed away. When I finally finished it, I made a fatal mistake and didn’t have it backed up on my computer and it was lost when my computer crashed. I spent the next year rewriting the book, which I believe helped me deal with my grief. The release of Soul of a Woman has definitely been a long time coming.
I haven’t decided which Last Rider story will be next, but I will tell you it’s a close tie between Cash and Lucky, I’ll keep you posted as to who wins out. In the Biker Bitch series, I plan on Evie’s being next, but Killyama is yelling my name. I’m desperately trying to ignore the woman.
I hope everyone is looking forward to Spring as much as I am.
Happy Reading,
Jamie Begley

Tainted Early Release!
I wanted to let everyone know that Tainted will be out a few days early. It is now available on Amazon. When it becomes available on Barnes & Noble, and Kobo I will let you know. It takes Kobo a few days longer than the other sites.
I think that all the questions from Teased will be answered. Sawyer and Kaden’s lives change directions when two deadly men fight for control over Queen City, Texas. Drawn into their intrigue, both of them discover an attraction that can not only heal old wounds but also reveal a secret that endangers them all.
To my Last Rider fans try not to skip to the back to read Shade’s Fall prologue before reading Tainted. Lol. It would be like eating dessert before having dinner, but I have to admit truthfully I probably would ;) Either way, enjoy.
Love always,
Jamie Begley

Tainted Release Date!
I hope everyone had a good Holiday and is looking forward to the New Year. I thought I would give you another book to look forward to, so Tainted will be released on January 21st. You will be able to purchase your copies on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo.
Tainted is probably the most serious book I have written. Sawyer and Kaden didn’t start out their relationship in the most conventional way but in the end they managed to find their happily ever after. Vida and Colton also make a appearance in Tainted so everyone can see how their story’s combined to reveal a secret that almost cost’s them their lives.
Now, to what you really want to know. I am currently writing on Shade and Lily’s story, which I am hoping to release mid-March. Keep your fingers crossed because I know I am. I will be working on it full time so as soon as I complete their story and get a date I will post it on my blog. To hold you until then the Prologue for Shade’s Fall will be in the back of Tainted. I’m kinda worried this may take my Shade stalkers over the edge, lol. I cannot tell you how much I have enjoyed reading everyone’s reaction to his cover on Facebook. My daughter has became almost too good capturing these bad boys images. I can only say as a mother I’m becoming a little concerned ;)
For my Kobo reader, I’m sorry for the delay in getting Sex Piston out, but Kobo had stopped adding new books December 18th and didn’t reopen until after Christmas. Oh well, live and learn. My fans lived through the aggravation and I learned no more December releases for me. Thankfully it is now live. The holiday sale of Sex Piston ends January 10th so I hope everyone will pick it up before it runs out, Sex Piston will then be raised to $2.99.
I have a lot of twists and turns planned for The Last Rider’s this year, so plan for a ride filled with surprises.
Love always,
Jamie Begley

Sex Piston Release Day!
It’s almost Christmas Eve so I downloaded my book early so I wouldn’t have any holiday glitches. Hopefully you can have it a few hours early. It’s not a long book so it should be a quick read and not take to much time out of your holiday schedule :). I loved writing Sex Piston’s story, she’s a character that has a heart of gold hidden behind her bitch attitude, she ran from her happy ever after, but Stud finally managed to catch the girl.
Tainted (The VIP Room, #2) prologue is in Sex Piston’s book and it also comes out next month, I’ll give a date as soon as possible. To my fans who all know I like to tease them, I will be putting the prologue to Shade’s book in the back of Tainted.
Everyone have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Remember to be safe during this holiday season I don’t have any fans to spare.

SEX PISTON’S RELEASE DATE!
I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving. I have been busy at work and writing Tainted which is going well. The good news is that Sex Piston’s book will be released on December 24th. I will be selling it for $1.50, because I didn’t want to put a strain on everyone’s budget during the holidays. I will be releasing it to Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo.
I unfortunately will no longer be able to publish my books on Smashwords, which publishes them to Sony and iBooks due to piracy. It doesn’t stop the illegal downloads but it does take it down to a more manageable level for me. As an Indie author I don’t have neither the recourses nor the hours of time needed to prevent illegal downloads. The sad fact is that I even gifted several copies of my books only to find that they were downloaded to others. I have rushed to have my books in print so that everyone can read my books without depending on a particular device.
I hope this doesn’t anger any of my fans and everyone will continue to read my books. I never expected my dreams to come true at this stage of my life and it’s because of you that they have been fulfilled so as you enjoy the Christmas Holidays know that I count each of you as blessings.
I know that everyone will be happy to hear that after I finish Tainted I will begin writing Shade and Lily’s story. I can’t make my mind up about the title but I’ll let you know when I do. Sex Piston’s book turned out to be easier to write than I thought it would be. She’s a character who likes attention so she didn’t give me too much trouble but I’m sorry to say that Stud can’t say the same. Her story also has her sister Diamond in it who is a Last Rider. Hint, Hint :) . I am also putting in the prologue for Tainted to those of you getting anxious for it’s release in January. I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday because as Sex Piston would say “You damn well deserve it.”
Love always,
Jamie Begley

Knox's Release Date and a SURPRISE!
I wanted to let everyone know that Knox’s Stand will be released on November 5th. You can read Knox's Stand prologue on Goodreads, but his book is very graphic so be warned. When I started writing The Last Rider’s I had no intention of writing Knox’s story but he became a character that deserved a story and a HEA. Diamond is a strong intelligent woman who realized that giving Knox her love didn’t make her weak. Only a woman of her strength could have won Knox’s love.
Now, I have a small surprise. I finished Knox on time so I decided to do a short story on Sex Piston. It will be released in December. Several of my fans want the women in The Last Rider series to have their own HEA so I will have a series of short stories just for them they will include some of Sex Piston’s crew and The Last Riders women. The Prologue to Sex Piston (Biker Bitches, #1) will be in the back of Knox’s book. As you can tell I have been keeping busy.
As always I want to thank everyone for their support and comments when I take breaks from work or writing. I always enjoy reading about your reactions to my stories. It’s why I love writing. I’m going to stop getting mushy now as my daughter will just make me delete it anyway, just know that you guys are appreciated.
Love,
Jamie Begley

Knox/Teased/SoaM
I just wanted to keep everyone updated about the fact that I am aiming for a mid-November release for Knox’s book. Knox’s book has everyone’s favorite Last Riders and fan favorites, Sex Piston and Killyama. The #1 question I am asked is which Last Rider is my favorite. I have to think about this question really hard because Shade, of course, I really like, but for some odd reason Knox grew on me. I had absolutely no intention of writing his story but as I wrote The Last Riders, his character became more and more clear. I really like this guy. So to answer everyone’s question it’s a tie between Knox and Shade. But each and every hero captures my affection when I am writing his story, so we will have to see if my answer changes when I write Shades story.
Teased is finally up and running on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and Kobo. I am sorry about the glitch with Barnes and Noble. I have also put Soul Of A Man on Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and Kobo with a brand new cover. Enjoy the new cover, I know it can’t compare to Knox’s steamy one but I’m happy with the final result.
Teased is doing well and I have all my fans to thank for its success as well as the new friends we’ve made. Sawyer’s story will be out in January, so please don’t be too mad at the wait because I am hoping to give everyone a small surprise at Christmas time. I will give more information when I release the date of Knox’s book.

Knox's Stand
Knox’s cover and synopsis release! I couldn’t resist giving Knox’s ladies his cover. I have already received many responses and I have LMFAO at some of them. I am almost finished with his book, so I was able to push up his release date to hopefully the middle of November.
Several of you are asking for a cast list of my characters, but the sad fact is, no one compares to my men. Lol, I am sorry to say I’m a little prejudiced. My daughter on the other hand, has no problem, as she is the one who creates my covers, I am a very lucky mom. Our process is very hard… looking through dozens and dozens of pictures of hot men. We have our process down pat. She shows me the pictures and I keep saying no that’s not him over and over. Then the really weird thing happens when she will show me that special one and I know instantly it’s him. Knox’s picture is exactly how I pictured him.
Now that I have shared his picture, I will tell you that his book is going well with plenty of turns and surprises. My fans have also been guessing who the murder victim is, which has made me laugh even harder. I will give one hint, Pastor Dean lives to see another book. Knox also didn’t kill Sex Piston, even though he was tempted. It won’t be much longer, so the suspense shouldn’t be too bad.
Don’t forget, Teased comes out Friday, and add Knox's Stand to your TBR pile!
