What Have I Done?!
Have you ever found yourself in one of those 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' awkward situations? You know the ones where whichever choice you make you're likely to upset someone? Well, this week it's my turn.
Today sees Sandpipers' Secrets released in print. When Total-E-Bound contacted me to let me know they were going to do a print run I was quite excited (insert over the moon with the chance of girl squeals). This will be the first book I've written that I'll be able to actually hold in my hands. Breathe in that fresh ink smell. Hide from the kids! Unfortunately, due to a small clerical error, no one realised the original manuscript was a few thousand words short of being eligible for print....until a few weeks ago. In the meantime, I'd made various announcements and promises to people for a print version.
So, after a lot of thought I decided to add to the original manuscript and write another chapter. All the ebooks copies sold from now on will contain this new material...but what about those that purchased the original ebook version? It seems rather unfair. So I came up with the following solution:
The additional chapter is available on my website for anyones that would like to read it. The following link will take you straight there;
http://www.jadearcher.com/Sandpipers_...
It's basically the last chapter before the epilogue.
In addition, I have seven .pdf ebook copies of the revised version of Sandpipers' Secrets
to give away. Simply leave a request for one on this blog post and it's all yours! :)
So, if you know anyone that's after a free contemporary mmm romance ebook with a twist pass the word. :D
Hope you all have a wonderful start to your week and happy reading to all!
~Hugs~

Finally Sharing Paul!
Finally, I get to share this one
with you all! :D
I'm so thrilled to have this one out and about at last. It's dedicated to someone very special and was something I truly enjoyed writing.
As a little side note, for anyone that enjoyed Crying Wolf,
Wolf makes a tiny cameo in this one. The ideas and plot are slowly forming for a full length novel detailing Cy and Wolf's love story...I just need more hours in my day. :)
In the meantime, I hope you enjoy Paul, Joshua and Matt's story and the continuation of the Portals series if you decide to read it.
Best wishes for a wonderful day and Happy Reading!

Devon's Revenge Give Away!
Hi Everyone!
Guess what I got this morning?!!!
Very excited...and a tiny bit nervous about this one. Yes there's a twist in the tale I don't think many will see coming. And I haven't finished with it yet. As the series continues the BIG OMG in this one is going to be important, so don't for one second think I include it frivolously. Lets just say it involves who the mages think they are and who they turn out to be though their actions. I've probably given to much away already...now you're just going to have to trust me! :D
So...to the important stuff. I have five early bird specials to give away. The first five people to comment below will receive a free pdf copy of Devon's Revenge
Who's interested in a free book? :D
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and...
Happy Reading To All!
~HUGS~

News and Covers
Hi Everyone!
Well Febuary has certainly been a busy month. I've got so many ideas buzzing around in my head at the moment. I feel like I'm being pulled in a dozen different directions at once...and I want to write them all. Right NOW, damn it! LOL.
So anyway...news. The cover art came in for Sharing Paul, book #3 of the Portals series. What do you think?
Personally I love it. It's another Emmy Ellis. Again the cover gods smile on me!
In other news, I've started something new. New stories. New direction. The next couple of books I'm working on are MMF. What can I say, sometimes the characters insist that they're girls...bit hard to argue with. One's a Sci/fi piece set in the same world building as Contact and The Nu Hayven Chronicles called 'The Stowaway'. The other I started last night is a shifter piece called 'Song of the Wolf' that's from world building I haven't published anything in yet. I started a couple of stories in it a few years ago, but haven't finished anything from it yet...here's hoping though :D
Hopefully, I'll have both these projets wrapped up by the end of March. Then I've got to decide whether to finish the fifth Contact book (Ashar's story) or work on the next Sandpipers book (Raven's Mark). Any preferences?
So that's it I guess. Life, as always is crazy busy, but crazy fun too.
Hugs to all,
Jade

The How, The Why and The Would I Do It Again!
Well Sandpipers' Secrets was officially released to the world this week and I'm absolutely over the moon! ~bounce, bounce~ It's here! It's here! :)
This one was a real labour of love for me. Something different and a step away from my usual Sci/fi / Paranormal comfort zone, but what an incredible ride Brody, Lark and Zak took me on. If you'd like to know more about the story behind the story of Sandpipers' Secrets join me on Jadette Paige's blog for the full story, links to excerpts and Another Little Secret coming your way soon :)
