It’s that time of the year, and I’m so excited to be part of the Young Adult Scavenger Hunt (YASH) yet again, where you can enter to win tons of books by your favorite authors. This bi-annual event was first organized by the awesome 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!
At 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! I am beyond excited to be part of #TEAMPURPLE and see all the awesome books you can win below! Need help on how to play? Go here.
This spring we five teams of twenty authors each, and each team is assigned a color. You can enter the hunt on all 5 teams if you want. The blog hop begins Tuesday April 2nd at 12pm Pacific Time and runs through Sunday, April 7th at noon Pacific Time. It’s easy to play, and go to the YASH website where you’ll find a list of all the authors participating as well as an answer sheet you can print off to gather the info you’re hunting for and to keep track of any bonus contests you may have entered.
Remember: Make sure to read all the way through this post to get the secret number, and to enter the bonus contest at the end of this post where I’m giving away an extra prize–a paperback copy of my urban fantasy, THE WING COLLECTOR.
EXCLUSIVE BONUS CONTENT:
About J.K. : Award winning author J.C. WELKER has been, among other things, a fashion designer, a graphic designer, a filmmaker, and occasionally a kickboxer (seriously). Her recent novel THE WISHING HEART won awards in the 2016 YARWA Rosemary Awards, 2018 Athena Awards, and was a finalist for Best First Book. She continues to work towards giving a voice to stories that are needed, while facing magic and monsters along the way.

ABOUT THE BOOK
With a book in her bag and a switchblade in her pocket, Rebel’s been thieving her way through life while hoping for a cure to fix her ailing heart.
But when the bejeweled vase she just tried to hawk turns out to be a jinni’s vessel, Rebel gets lost to her world and dragged within another. Now every magical being in the city wants the vase for himself.
Thrust into a game of cat and mouse in a world she never knew existed, Rebel must use her uncanny skills to find a way to free Anjeline the Wishmaker.
But wishes have consequences. And contracts. Anjeline’s freedom could unravel a love like Rebel has never known, or it could come at the cost of Rebel’s heart…
J.C.’s book sounds awesome! Grab a copy of The Wishing Heart here!
BONUS MATERIAL: Graphic Playlist from The Wishing Heart
A huge thanks to J.C. for stopping by on the hunt and giving us a sneak peak at her book, The Wishing Heart. It looks so cool that it makes me want 11 copies!
