SCAVENGER HUNT POST
Today, I am hosting the super-gorgeous, super-talented Leigh Fallon, author of The Carrier Series, which includes CARRIER OF THE MARK and the upcoming SHADOW OF THE MARK, on my blog for the YA Scavenger Hunt!
Harrassed mom by day and tormented writer by night, Leigh is a walking Irish cliche, trying (rather unsuccessfully, she thinks) to to blend into U.S. society.
Find out more information about Leigh Fallon, check out her website or find more about the author's books here!  And now for the best part of the hunt...   EXCLUSIVE CONTENT FROM LEIGH FALLON!     In SHADOW OF THE MARK, the upcoming sequel to Leigh's hit novel CARRIER of the Mark, life for Megan Rosenberg just got a lot more complicated.   While she evoked the air element, and her feelings for Adam instensified, a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal has been spun around her.  With the Order tightening its hold, and the reinstatement of the Mark Knights, Megan has more questions than answers as the Marked Ones grow in strength.   New people arouse suspicion, the DeRises start behaving strangely, and Megan begins to unravel a destiny shrouded in mystery.  It's a destiny the Order has struggled to hide, and a destiny someone in the past - far in the past - has already laid claim to.   Alliances will be made and friends will be lost as the Order's dark secrets will be revealed by the very thing they sought to destroy.   Doesn't that sound FANTASTIC?  I know I can't wait for SHADOW OF THE MARK to be released!  And we don't have to wait that long - Leigh has been awesome enough to share a sneek peak of SHADOW OF THE MARK here.  To access this exclusive content, you'll need the password, " Shadow ."   Thanks so much, Leigh, for sharing that with us!  And don't forget to enter the contest for a chance to win a ton of signed books by me, Tara Hudson, and more! To enter, you need to know that my favorite number is 2.  Add up all the favorite numbers of the authors on the blue team and you'll have all the secret code to enter for the grand prize!

To keep going on the hunt, you need to check out the next author (who I absolutely adore) Tera Lynn Childs, at her website here!
