A Shadow Riders MC: TEASER ~ Sage Advice from Blue to his Daughter, Shayla

"Darlin', if I never teach you nothin' else in this life, I'm gonna teach you this shit here: anytime somebody tells you that you CAN'T or that you SHOULDN'T do somethin' that you've been dyin' to do -- that you've been dreamin' about doin' since you were no higher than a pig's foot in dirt, you bend it over, slap an I CAN and I WILL on that son of a bitch and keep it movin' straight ahead." He pointed. "And while you're walkin' away, you better be holdin' your head up so goddamn high that when motherfuckers see you pass, they'll think God Himself is pullin' you up with an invisible string He personally gifted to ya. Understand? Never let a motherfucker allow you to think you're less than."


I love Blue in part because he says things like this. He's very thoughtful with his words even if they aren't PC or everyone's cup of tea; he has absolutely no filter and doesn't care because he's speaking his truth. And he believes that in the end, his intentions are always good and for the sake of helping others. He is the kind of man that looks out for other people more than himself which is why he was such a great Sergeant At Arms for the club, and why I think he'll be an even better VP for his best friend.

CRASHED: A SKULL & BONES MC

Hope you can still be patient for CRASHED!  Real life things are getting in the way of edits coming to a close, and it's taking longer than I'd like.  But the book is still coming! Dates will be updated once everything is final.   Here's another quote from Jackson CRASH Timmons to Heaven Santiago.  This line is probably outta pocket, but I loved writing it anyway.  You were like an ongoin’ shot of heroin; the needle was hangin’ outta my arm like a goddamn addict and I was achin’ like a motherfucker to get back to that feelin’ you gave me in that truck.

#WriterWednesday - Inflamed 'Fun Fact!'

Did you know...? The scene in which Mia & River finally talk about their feelings for each other and hook up was written about a month before nearly everything else that happened prior to it. Right after I wrote the prologue and first three chapters, there was a giant gap of 'stuff' that was supposed to happen, but I wasn't sure how to fill it because I didn't know what any of that 'stuff' would be. So I decided to move forward with other parts of the story until it finally hit me. That exact moment of their hook up came to me as I was writing another scene, and I just went with it, all while having zero clue as to how the hell they got to that point (given where they started)! It was only when I finished those scenes that I knew what I was building up to and how the story itself would come to an end. It amplified and intensified every conversation and encounter between them, hence the name of the book. I changed the cover three times in the hope of ...

A Shadow Riders MC: Bluespiration

Blue + Inspiration = Bluespiration... You get it. Anywho! It took me awhile, but I think I finally found my Blue! Now he's younger than I'd like, a wee bit taller than he should be, his eyes are a different color than written and his hair is much longer than Blue's will ever get...  BUT. BUT. BUT. BUT . LOOK AT THIS GUY. JUST LOOK. ( I'm not sure where this picture is from originally, but I got it from PINTEREST ) He's like Tarzan and Thor all rolled into one or something. His name is Brock O'Hurn and he's an apparent Instagram star because he looks, well, like that . I'd seen him before ( long before I penned a single Shadow Riders book ) but when I kept thinking about Blue and what he looked like, a face similar to this is what kept popping up. To me, Blue has always had the wisdom of someone like Bobby from #SOA but looks as if he could even set the sun on fire. Anyway, I thought I'd sha...
