Teased!

Teased will be released on October 4, 2013! Colton and Vida are two strong characters who fought their attraction long and hard, only to find in the end that they couldn’t fight the inevitable. Teased is a cliffhanger but it also has a HEA, so I hope everyone falls in love with these two characters, and cheers them on to find Vida’s friend. The prologue is now available for you to read on the Teased Goodreads page. The second book in the series will be released early in 2014.

Lord have mercy! I Thought I would take a break from writing Knox’s story to give you the good news about Teased. Poor Knox, he does have his hands full. I am hoping for an early December release, and will be posting his cover and synopsis in a couple of weeks.

Fall is here in Kentucky and it’s truly beautiful with all of the leaves changing colors and the perfect weather- not too hot or cold. I want to thank everyone for their comments and support; it is very much appreciated.

Love you all,

Jamie Begley

Razer's Ride Update

I wanted to let everyone know that Razer’s Ride is now available on Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and Kobo. Everyone now has a choice on which device to read Razer’s and Beth’s story. I have updated my bio, so check it out if you would like to get to know me better. Keep up the emails; I sincerely enjoy reading messages from my fans. Thank you all so much for visiting my new website as I love all the comments being posted. Lily and shade remain everyone’s favorite, but Knox and Cash have caught a few of the ladies eyes. ;)

I am currently working on Knox’s story and it is going well which means I am still shooting for a December release. Right now time is at a premium for me, but I managed to decorate for Halloween. My daughter is not pleased, because I have a particular witch that hangs from the ceiling that even I have to admit is a little scary looking. I have a feeling I will wake up one morning and she will be gone. In case you haven’t figured it out yet my daughter and I are polar opposites. I decorate for every occasion and she say’s I overdo it. One year I put up four Christmas trees of varying sizes. The next year when I started to decorate for Christmas two were gone. I haven’t seen them since…

Teased is in the editing phase (yes, I do edit lol) and as soon as possible I will post the first chapter and give a release date. I see that there are a lot of new books that are out and when Knox’s book is finished I plan on becoming a book junkie for a couple of days. Is it possible to die from book overdose? If so I will die happy.

Talk to you soon,

Jamie Begley

New Series!

I am overwhelmed by everyone’s response to Viper's Run. I have sincerely enjoyed the many emails I have received trying to get hints for Knox’s and Shade's books. Many have developed theories on Pastor Dean. I can tell you that many of your questions will be answered in the next two books, even the mystery of who Bliss’ fourth daisy represented will be revealed. I have finished the book I was writing and starting this weekend I will begin writing Knox’s story. I don’t believe you will be disappointed by the giant biker, nor the headstrong woman he is determined to claim.

I am putting up the synopsis of my new book Teased (The VIP Room, #1) and the cover. Teased was a very intense book for me to write. Vida was a character I came to admire and love her resiliency towards life. I hope everyone enjoys this series as much as The Last Riders.

I wanted to remind everyone that Razer’s Ride will be available on B&N, Kobo, and Smashwords on September 9th, again I am sorry for the delay.

The weeks ahead will be busy for me writing Knox’s story and working. I also love Halloween so I will be decorating my house a little bit early. I have a collection of witches and black cats that my daughter hides from me, so as soon as I can find them, they will be making their appearance once again in my home.

I love you all,
Jamie Begley

Reveal...

I want to thank everyone for their response to Viper’s Run. I have enjoyed reading the comments on Goodreads, Facebook, and especially my email. I think without a doubt everyone wants Lily and Shade’s story. Since I began writing The Last Riders series, Lily’s story has been going through my mind, dying to be told. It has actually been difficult not to write. The reason I haven’t is not to build suspense, but I have to let The Last Riders stories progress enough so that Lily and Shade’s story is ready to be told. For that reason, their story will not be next, instead the next Last Riders story will be about Knox.

I hope none of my fans will be too disappointed, the funny thing about Knox is I wasn’t even going to do a book on him. Knox has maneuvered himself into the storyline, actually replacing the character I was planning on writing about next. I plan on beginning his story after I finish the one I am writing now and hopefully you will be reading it by the end of the year.

I am very excited about the story I am writing now, the name of the heroine is Vida. She is a sweet spunky young woman who has found herself in a little bit of trouble, who needs some help from a badass ex-convict; Colton a tattoo artist . I will be posting a synopsis of the book in the next couple of weeks.

I am looking forward to the fall and the release of a new book in the next couple of months. So that everyone doesn’t have to wonder when Lily’s story will be written, I have made a list of the books I will be working on in the order I will be writing them.

I will be talking to you soon.

Untitled Book 1-Tentative publication date October 2013

Knox's (The Last Riders, #3)-Tentative publication date December 2013

Untitled Book 2-Tentative publication date February 2014

Shade's (The Last Riders, #4)-Tentative publication date April 2014

I know how anxiously readers wait for the next book in the series to come out, so I will try my best to stick to the timelines I have set.

Release Day!

Today is an exciting day for me with Viper’s Run becoming available on many platforms. I began writing Winter and Viper’s story before Razer’s Ride was published, so hopefully the wait wasn’t too long for you.

You can purchase Viper’s Run on Smashwords right now. Later today, my book will become available on Kobo and Amazon. Smashwords will be distributing my book through Apple iBookstore, Barnes and Noble, Baker & Taylor, Diesel eBook Store, Page Foundry, and Sony. I don’t know exactly when they will become available on those platforms, but I assume it should be no more than a couple of days.

Several people have asked when Razer’s Ride will be available for purchase in other locations. In addition to Amazon, it will become available on the same platforms as Viper’s Run on September 9th. I am sorry for the delay, but it has been unavoidable.

I hope everyone enjoys Viper’s Run. Winter has become one of my favorite characters and I hope you take her into your hearts.

Love you all,
Jamie Begley

Read me!

It has been a busy time for me getting my book, “Viper’s Run”, ready to be published and I hope everyone is looking forward to its release. I will be making a snippet of Viper’s Run available on Goodreads. Give it a read when you get time. I haven’t made my mind up yet as to which Last Rider’s story I will be writing next and I am in a quandary as none of the men want to wait their turn to tell their story.

I have been busy writing and will tell you more after the release of Viper’s Run, which is about what I have been working on for the last month. I plan to stay busy in the next few weeks by wrapping up the story I’m working on before beginning a new Last Rider’s book.

I want to thank everyone again for reading Razer’s Ride. Viper’s Run will let everyone catch up with Razer and Beth while at the same time fall in love with Viper and Winter.

I hope everyone is having a great summer, and reading plenty of good books.

Good News!

It has been a long week and I am enjoying my weekend. I love my job, but there is nothing like relaxing with a good book or two. I have a TBR pile that is growing by the minute; a few are The Goblin King, Paul’s Pursuit, and MacRieve. I am planning on a reading fest as a soon as I finish the book I am currently writing.

I want to thank Amanda and Janna at mysecretbookreviews.com for their reviews. If you care to go to their website, I am giving away a free copy of Razer’s Ride. Razer is the Jerk of My Dreams #20, which is a spot he well deserves.

I have posted the synopsis for Viper’s Run on Goodreads. I think some of you already have guessed who the heroine is that gives Viper a run he will never forget. I am looking forward to August 20, when it will be released to Amazon and Smashwords.

Enjoy reading the synopsis and check out my interview on mysecretromancebookreviews.com!

Update...

I hope everyone had a great holiday! My daughter would tell you that July 4th is her favorite holiday, personally I think it is the barbeque but she says it is the fireworks. I don’t argue because I enjoyed the day from beginning to end.

I am excited to tell you I did finish Viper’s story. I have put the cover up if you would like to take a look, as soon as I have a release date I will let everyone know. I work full time so the next few weeks I have to go back over the story in my free time. The middle of August is probably the best estimate I can give at this time. During the coming week I will post a synopsis for you.

Have a great week and read a good book for me.

:)

I finished reading “Heart of Obsidian” by Nalini Singh. I have really enjoyed taking the night off from my series to read this book. I had been waiting to find out who the Ghost was in her Psy-Changeling series. I love paranormal books and she is one of my favorite authors.

I am still working on Viper’s story; I have set myself the goal of finishing it by the 4th of July. My family and I always have a big cookout that day so we are all looking forward to that in the next couple of weeks.

Hope everyone is reading a good book.

TGIF!

It has been an exciting week for me. I am thrilled with all the responses to my book. What is really cool is that I can tell several of my readers share my sense of humor. Leonor, thank you for all your support. Every time I see Stephanie’s gif, I laugh. Jetta made my day when she shared her feelings while she was reading my book. These are all firsts for me, so I thank you all for that.

I have been working all week plus writing in the evenings so I have decided to give myself Friday off. I plan to have dinner out then curl up with a good book. I haven’t let myself read anything in several months, but tonight I am going to read Nalini Singh’s “Heart of Obsidian.” I will be back to working on Viper’s story Saturday, he doesn’t mind me taking of Friday since the Last Riders like their Fridays off also.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!
