Chiles is the co-author with Bobby Brown of the New York Times bestselling memoir, Every Little Step: My Story, published in June 2016 by Dey Street Books/HarperCollins.

Chiles is the co-author of the 2014 book Justice While Black: Helping African-American Families Navigate and Survive the Criminal Justice System. Written with attorney Robbin Shipp, the book was an NAACP Image Awards finalist in 2015.

Chiles is the co-author with Rev. Al Sharpton of the New York Times bestseller, The Rejected Stone: Al Sharpton and the Path to American Leadership, which was released in October 2013 and received lavish praise.

He is the co-author with Kirk Franklin of the New York Times bestseller, The Blueprint: A Plan for Living Above Life’s Storms.
