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.

CRASHED: A SKULL & BONES MC

It's been a while!  So much has been going on within the world and my personal life that I had to take a severe step back with my writing. I hated it, but it was also necessary. Because I suffered from terrible writer's block and as a result, was unable to pen anything worth reading.  I started writing CRASHED sometime in 2020 before stopping and then trying to pick it up over the last four years. I was never bored with the story but overtime, became unmotivated to finish. Within the last few months, I was able to change that and finally finish the story that had initially gotten me back on my feet after Professor X .  There are some things I changed about the original story, such as the name of the MC, a few themes and the cover. But overall, the story itself is the same and has gone back to the roots of the first MC I had ever written and published, Inflamed . River and Mia also make appearances in this story, by the way.  If you would like to sign up to read an A...

PROFESSOR X: A BLUE DEVILS MC

PROFESSOR X: A BLUE DEVILS MC PRICE : 99cents during release month RELEASE DATE : MONDAY MAY 25TH. SIGN UP FOR RELEASE ALERT READ MORE BELOW 🔻 Hey cool cats and kittens, how have we been holding up during quarantine? You good? Anxious? Exhausted? Overwhelmed? I hope that maybe I can help to alleviate some of that with the release of #ProfessorX. Just letting you know that I've spent the last month and a half or more (I don't remember days and time anymore) rewriting portions of this book and editing, editing, editing while also trying to keep sane. But I love this story so much, you guys. I really, really do and hope that you will to. I love Xavier and Mariah and the way they love each other. I had a lot of fun writing it and kind of let myself go. This is more of a second-chance MC romance where the characters grew up together and tried to have a relationship at one point before ending things, though the love between them never faded. If you initially signed up f...

"A SAVAGE KINDA LOVE - A RECKLESS RENEGADES MC" NOW LIVE ON AMAZON

It has taken me an entire year to both write and edit this book, mainly due to lack of time to finish BUT "A SAVAGE KINDA LOVE" IS FINALLY LIVE ON AMAZON!  HERE ARE THE LINKS:  AmazonUS AmazonUK AmazonCA AmazonAU With his eyes on my face, perfect but unsure, a flame lit up inside my belly that swept into my chest, igniting every inch of my body until the thought of there being absolutely nothing left beyond it surpassed the actual feeling. First came corruption, then came salvation...  He's the son of an international coke dealer who needs a wife to secure his family fortune.  I'm the daughter of a convicted outlaw who needs his money to help pay off a high debt my father still owes to his former MC.  We're complete opposites.  Night and day.  Oil and water.  Good and insanely bad... for each other.  The last thing I ever thought I would need was his help to save my family.  The last thing he ...

SURPRISE STANDALONE COMING SOON!

Hey all! I'm dropping another new MC novel on Amazon soon! It'll be a complete standalone story with no second book or any connection whatsoever to the Shadow Riders. It'll be on sale for .99cents or FREE in KU! Check the title and blurb: CHAINED TO THE BAD BOY BIKER (cover coming soon!) Colette: I woke up in Vegas chained up and married to my ex-boyfriend's hot as hell biker brother. Not that I'm exactly complaining considering I've been in love with him since forever, but... Record scratch. Wait a second. I bet you're wondering how the hell a kindergarten teacher got here, right? Well join the (biker) club, because so am I!! Roman: She woke up next to me in Vegas with a diamond cuff on her wrist and a matching ring on her finger, and is wondering how the hell she got here. I didn't have the heart to tell her that she only said yes to my proposal because she thought I was my inept kid brother. I didn't have the guts to tell her that ...

CODE BLUE ~ RELEASE DAY!

It's RELEASE DAY for your boy Blue!! If you didn't have the chance to pre order your copy of CODE BLUE, you can purchase it RIGHT NOW on AMAZON for $4.99 or read it for FREE in Kindle Unlimited! It's imperative that you read INFLAMED prior to this book. Though they are stand alone stories, it helps immensely to read the first book in the Shadow Riders series to better understand the characters and their current situations. I hope that you enjoy Code Blue as much as I enjoyed writing it! Sometimes the writing was not so fun. Sometimes I wanted to rip my hair out, sometimes I hated these characters like real people, and other times I loved them and cried with them as if they were some of my closest friends.  This is the longest book I have ever written and I NEVER expected for Blue's story to be this long and complex, but there it is.  Blue and Roxy's story pretty much gutted me at certain parts, but they were determined to have their HEA and I was determined...

CODE BLUE ~ ARC AND RELEASE

"The pain was as real as the love we had for one another; it was ugly and beautiful and crazy as hell, wrapped within a sea of tortured madness that was us." CODE BLUE ARC's have been sent out today, so please check your emails! If you've yet to receive it, please email me back and let me know! The book releases in just FOUR DAYS! It's a little over 200K words which means, YES, THIS BOOK IS ONE LONG MOTHER-EFFER. Blue's background and story versus River's is a hell of a lot more complex to say the least, as is his relationship with Roxy, whose own story is no simple picnic in the park. I'll just say that River and Mia were tame in comparison to these two in every aspect, so you've been warned about that. If you've yet to PRE ORDER the book, do so soon! The price will go up from $4.99 to $5.99 on March 13th. You can still read it for free in KU if you have the service via Amazon. INFLAMED will also be absolutely FREE for ONE DAY O...

CODE BLUE ~ ARC INFO

Hey all!  If you preordered CODE BLUE, then you should have gotten an email from Amazon letting you know that it will be delayed by a week and a few days and will release on February 28th instead of the 17th. I've done some heavy retooling and lost some pretty important chunks of the book that I've had to rewrite and make perfect for you guys again, so I hope you all understand. The book is still coming, it's just going to take a bit more time for me to polish up and make as perfect as possible for you all. Now, if you've read 'Inflamed', then you know I will not shy away from heavy topics in Code Blue either. It's gritter, a little bit darker and much heavier on the action, sex, swearing and violence. Please keep in mind as you're reading the kind of characters that these men are as well as the women who love them. I can't wait to share Blue and Roxy's story with you all. It's been really, really tough for me to write over the last seve...

It's Gonna Be a BLUE SEPTEMBER!

INFLAMED will be 99cents tomorrow (8/20/16)!!!! If you've yet to grab it, pick it up and tell a friend! CODE BLUE will officially be out in SEPTEMBER ! I've had tons of unexpected setbacks this month in my personal life, but I'm determined to push through and get this book out for you all.  It's turning out to be one of my favorites and I really can't wait for you all to get your hands on Blue's story! It's sad, it's dark, it's thrilling, it's sexy as hell.  Once the book is in edits, I'll drop an official DATE. In case you missed it, here is the official synopsis! "...it was hard, it was nasty, it was angry and gritty... it was us." WARNING BEFORE THE WARNING: This book breaks all the rules put in place for traditional romance. Lying. Cheating. Stealing. Tons of swearing and death. It shows the uglier, more unpleasant side of being part of an MC. No kittens. Bunnies. Flowers, hearts or candy.  No roses and bare...

A Shadow Riders MC: CODE BLUE ~ COMPLETE SYNOPSIS

"...it was hard, it was nasty, it was angry and gritty... it was us." WARNING BEFORE THE WARNING: This book breaks all the rules put in place for traditional romance. Lying. Cheating. Stealing. Tons of swearing and death. It shows the uglier, more unpleasant side of being part of an MC. No kittens. Bunnies. Flowers, hearts or candy.  No roses and barely even sanity. It shows how hurt, pain, betrayal and death can haunt the ever loving sh!t out of the living. It's gritty. Raw. Nasty. Angry. Over the top and in your face salacious. It will snatch you from your comfort zone.  It will offend you. It will disgrace you.  It will chew you up, spit you out and ask that you still have more. It'll be too much for some and not enough for others. It makes no apologies and pulls no punches. If you think you can you handle all of that and then some? Read on. WARNING: Though CODE BLUE is complete with an HEA, it's also the second in a series of stand...

A Shadow Riders MC: CODE BLUE FRIYAY TEASER ~ Blue & Roxy

NSFW : He rattled his head and turned away from the television set to look directly into my eyes, and groaned. "Don't you go lookin' at me like that, darlin'." I shoved my brows together and shook my head at him. "Looking at you like what?" He raised the remote and clicked the off button, then turned his entire body toward me and leaned in so close that I was forced to breathe him in. My lips parted in an instant and as he exhaled, the taste of cigarettes and beer coated the entirety of my tongue.  It was far from sublime but I didn't care because that taste was a part of him, a deep rooted part of who he had always been. A part I craved and longed for, and so desperately wanted and needed for myself. It was a part that no matter how hard I tried would never be able to let go of; a part that if I held onto tight enough would soon become mine, and only mine until the end of forever. "Darlin'." A smirk ticked up the corner of hi...

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 b...

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...

A Shadow Riders MC: Blue's Book ~ Manic Monday UPDATE!

Just an FYI! "Code Blue" picks up where "Inflamed" left off, with Blue and Snake ( who has come to pick him up from the wedding ) driving back home to Crescent Beach, while River spends time with Mia outside of the hospital for some honeymoon time. *Ahem* Now, it's not *required* to read "Inflamed" first, BUT, it might help to get acquainted with it in order to have a grip on the characters and the situations ( as well as dialog, language, etc. ) at hand. I write out of order and never manage to stick to my outlines unless I have full blown scenes written ( and even those will get cut from time to time if the story ends up flipping in a completely different direction, as it did with Inflamed and as I feel it will here ), and right now, I'm penning the prologue. This is where Blue meets Roxy for the first time and their first meeting is... intense , to say the least. I was surprised because I had two other prologues in my head for about a mo...

Tentative Writing Schedule for 2016

SO! These are the next books I am working on this year: Code Blue ~ A Shadow Riders MC The Wedding ~ A Miss Independent Novel (Book 5 ) Bound With You ( Written under my pen name, "Sasha" and final book in the Bound Serial ) I had planned to write at least two more following ( Styx's book, along with the final Miss Independent novel ), but when Inflamed got pushed back to March, I had to step back and look at what I was actually capable of finishing before 2017 ( this year is zipping by, good grief ). And I realized that penning one book at a time REALLY works wonders for me creatively as opposed to writing so many stories at once. I am able to concentrate so much better, get all my ducks in a row, focus harder on characterization and flesh out a more authentic world and setting.  When I rush, the results are awful and it shows in the writing and story. So in order to give you the reading experience you deserve, I need to focus one at a time instead of being sca...

#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 ...

FWIW: This is a Personal Note, so Please Read at Your Own Risk

I truly appreciate the passion many readers have for Inflamed - the title is very aptly named, I think. However ( and I never planned to do this and don't really ever plan to address something like this again in the future, but it's kind of getting to me personally and affecting my daily writing process for the next book ), I don't think I expected some of the more vitriolic messages I've received as a result of this book either. Now, I expected opposition to the story/characters/writing/setting/swearing before I was even halfway done with the book, so that's not what this is about. People are entitled to feel how they choose and once a book leaves my hands and is in yours, it's no longer something I "own". Truth be told, I really appreciate hearing all sides because it helps me to grow as an author, and this is where reader feedback comes in. But I think that a line of respect on both ends sort of needs to be drawn as well. I stay away from revi...
