YA Scavenger Hunt–Spring 2020
Welcome to the Spring 2020 YA Scavenger Hunt!
This bi-annual event was first organized by author Colleen Houck as a way to give readers a chance to gain access to exclusive bonus material from their favorite authors…and a chance to win some awesome prizes! On this hunt, you not only get access to exclusive content from each author, you also get a clue for the hunt. Add up the clues, and you can enter for our prize–one lucky winner will receive one book from each author on the hunt in my team! But play fast: this contest (and all the exclusive bonus material) will only be online for 120 hours!

ABOUT MISTY
Misty Hayes is a young adult author of a pulse pounding paranormal trilogy called The Blood Dagger series. She always had a thing for escaping headfirst into fantastical books, and this is what led her to start writing her own adventures down. As someone who has spent a long career in law enforcement, Misty has a love for strong female protagonists who are full of wit and snark.

ABOUT THE BOOK
When Larna Collins finds her father’s journal hidden away under the floor, it leads her to a small village in England — inhabited by vampires and full of deadly secrets…
Larna has never understood why her dad skipped out on her and her mother when she was twelve years old. Until then, he was a devoted and loving father. But six years later, during a renovation of her childhood home, she unearths her father’s journal from under a floorboard. According to his final entry before he left, he had recently visited a small parish in England. The entries drew her to this quaint village, which Larna discovers isn’t as charming as its blood-craving inhabitants want her to believe, and she learns that she isn’t the only one trying to track her father down.
Could this explain her father’s disappearance? Or was placing her in the center of danger her dad’s master plan all along?
Doesn’t that sound great? Like something you could read 23 times!
EXCLUSIVE CONTENT: Playlist For The Outcasts: The Blood Dagger: Volume 1
Hello you special readers. I used this playlist to write most of the first book in The Blood Dagger series. Music is a gateway for creativity, especially during some pretty difficult scenes I wrote in this book. I hope you enjoy listening to these songs as much as I did–and still do. If this were to be a Netlfix or HBO series, the first song: Thirty Seconds to Mars: Conquistador would be the theme song.
