Blog Tour: "Pack of Lies" by Staci Weber & Sara Dailey (Guest Post)
Welcome to our Blog Tour stop on "Pack of Lies"by Staci Weber & Sara Dailey. Brought to you by the lovely ladies at Innovative Online Book Tours. Here you can read a guest post from the authors, the authors bio, book's synopsis, and an excerpt from Pack of Lies.
A Typical Day for a
Writer…I
have no idea.

Sara and I don’t really consider
ourselves as “typical” writers. We are both full-time teachers, well at least
for a few more days. Ours days are filled with seventh
and eighth graders. Let me stress that these are twelve to fourteen year old
teenagers in the last week of school. I think that says it all. After school,
it’s off to swim team, dinner with the family, and then all over again the next
day.
We write when we can and when we
have to. Sara and I meet once a week to discuss, to plan, and to write
together. At the end of each meeting, we give each other homework. It sounds
cheesy, but it is the only way we can get things done with our busy schedules.
With summer approaching, hopefully our days will slow down a bit, and we will
have more opportunities to write together.
The more I
think about it; maybe we are “typical” writers. It’s very hard these days to
support yourself and your family being a writer. I’m sure many writers start
out just like us, trying to find time everyday to sit alone in a room and just
write. The only difference is that we have each other, which has been a
blessing. Who knows if we would ever find the time if we were doing this alone.
Writing with a partner, holds you accountable and forces you to turn off the TV
or put down the book you are reading in your spare time, and that’s okay
because we are doing what we love. Hopefully, one day we can make this a full-time
gig, but until then, we will just have to do our best to keep getting our
stories out there. At this point, we have no choice; it’s a part of who we are
now.
Pack of Lies
(Red Ridge Pack Series #1)
Blurb:
The last thing Allison Wright ever expected when
she moved to Red Ridge, New Mexico was to come muzzle to muzzle with the wolf
of her dreams.
Synopsis:
Seventeen-year-old
Allison Wright is convinced she’s losing her mind. Uncontrollable mood swings,
hot flashes, and the urge to punch anyone who gets in her way are suddenly
becoming everyday occurrences. Before her erratic behavior gets out of hand,
Allison’s mother finally comes clean about her dark secret. Mom is a werewolf,
and soon Allison and her brother Aiden will suffer the same fate. When Allison
reaches her breaking point, the family leaves their life in Texas to move to
Red Ridge, New Mexico where they rejoin the pack that Allison’s mother left
behind almost 20 years ago.
Unfortunately,
not everyone in Red Ridge is thrilled about Allison’s arrival, especially when
she attracts the attention of the very handsome, very taken, soon-to-be alpha,
Cade Walker. Little does Allison know, her mere presence is causing a rift in a
once unified pack. Not only has Cade been forbidden from being with Allison by
his father, the pack’s alpha, Cade’s girlfriend, Kendall Stuart, will stop at
nothing to get Allison out of the picture. Well on her way to becoming the next
alpha’s mate, Kendall expects to rule the pack by Cade’s side even if it means
teaming up with a rogue werewolf with an agenda of his own. Determined to get
rid of Allison permanently, when Kendall and the rogue join forces, all hell
breaks loose and no one in the pack is safe, especially not Cade and his true
mate.
Book excerpt:
Author’s Bio:
Both
Sara Dailey and Staci Weber are avid readers, English teachers, friends, wives,
and soccer moms. They have been teaching together for the past eight years, and
writing together for four. Pack of Lies is
the second young adult novel for this duo.
Book excerpt:
“I picked up on a
scent that stopped all thought, all movement, leaving me standing completely
still, breathing in a smell that I would never forget. A mix of earth, and
musk, and honeysuckle, and sandalwood filled my senses leaving me with a need,
a need to find this thing that was suddenly making me salivate, suddenly making
me ache with desperation.
Without
hesitation, my nose hit the ground as I began to track the enticing smell. I
didn’t look up. I didn’t stop moving. I didn’t stop to think about what I might
find. None of it mattered. I needed to find the source of that wonderful scent.
In
the near distance, I heard a rustling in the brush, which ceased the mission
that had held me spellbound. I stopped dead in my tracks and looked around,
spooked by what I might find, but what I saw was the last thing I expected.
Peering
out from behind a tall oak, a wolf was watching me. We just stood still, staring
at each other, neither of us moving a muscle. His amazing green eyes were in
sharp contrast to his deep, dark fur. He was a much bigger wolf than me, strong
and lean, and the glint in his eyes told me that he was no ordinary wolf.”
