YA Scavenger Hunt, Red Team Style

Okay, so dude, today is the day for another YA scavenger hunt. This time, it's bigger and better--and designed so that you, the readers can do as little or as much as you want.

There will be three loops. Blue, Yellow, and Red. You can win 20 books on each loop, for a total of 60 books! Or just do one loop, and enter to win 20 books.


And I'm Team Red! If at any time you get lost on the hunt or a link isn't working, you can click here to keep going.

Today for the hunt, I'm hosting the awesome ninja, Ali Cross, author of BECOME. Let's learn a little about them before I reveal Ali's exclusive content.


About Ali: Ali Cross is the sensei of the writer's dojo where she holds a black belt in awesome. She lives in Utah with her kickin' husband, two sparring sons, one ninja cat, two sumo dogs and four zen turtles.

Ali is the author of the Desolation series, a young adult urban fantasy about the kick-butt devil’s daughter and her search for a destiny of her own choosing.

Click here to follow Ali and her ninja-tastic news on her blog.


About BECOME: Sixteen-year old Desolation Black wants nothing more than to stay in Hell where it’s cold and lonely and totally predictable. Instead, she’s sent back to Earth where she must face the evil she despises and the good she always feared.

When Desi is forced to embrace her inner demon, she assumes her choice has been made—that she has no hope of being anything other than what her father, Lucifer, has created her to be. What she doesn’t count on, is finding a reason to change—something she’s never had before—a friend.

Dude, you know you need to buy BECOME and read it, stat.

And now, Ali's secret content, the first 2 chapters of DESOLATION, her second novel, due out soon!

And that's not all! You can enter to win a signed paperback or an e-copy of BECOME by Ali Cross simply by clicking twice to let people know you've seen this exclusive content on the Red loop of the YA Scavenger Hunt. Click here. Click tweet.

To continue the hunt, GO TO JANET GURTLER'S blog, where you'll find another amazing author, with more exclusive content.

Oh, and you'll need this letter to help you unscramble the phrase to ENTER TO WIN the 20 books on the Red Loop of the YA Scavenger Hunt. Secret Letter: N.

So go forth, meet new authors, find new books, view exclusive content, gather all the letters, and enter to win!

I'm super excited about my exclusive content today--hope you can find it, because it has to do with SURRENDER and The Insider's Case Files, which you can enter to win HERE. And you have another opportunity to win POSSESSION... So go find where I am today!

Happy hunting!
