Why Werewolves?
When we set out to write our first series, we chose
werewolves for a number of reasons, but let’s first explore why we didn’t
choose vampires, fairies, or angels. First of all, we already did angels in our
first novel, Sinful. When we first began writing, there weren’t any YA romances
out there like it. Yep, we researched it, and there was only one other popular
angel series, and it was nothing like our own. Unfortunately, things quickly
changed right about the time we found a publisher. It was going to take 18
months before our novel would be out in print, and during that time, novel
after novel came out about angels. In fact, our novel was originally entitled,
Fallen. You can imagine our surprise (and disappointment) when Lauren Kate’s
Fallen hit the shelf. By November 2010, when Sinful was released, the market
was saturated with angel books. In short, we tried to be different, and it
didn’t work.
Why not vampires or fairies? You can probably guess when it
comes to vampires. There are so many vampire series out there and most of them
are series that began right after Twilight became hugely popular. It is really
difficult to sell a vampire book, especially as new authors. And needless to
say, it’s pretty much been done. Now fairies are a different story. There are a
lot of great fairy series out there, but the best ones are fully immersed in
fairy lore. There are so many rules for the world of fairies, which would
require a lot of research, and if you don’t get it right, you’re just asking
for some serious criticism. Plus, we wanted our series to focus more on
romantic relationships than the paranormal world surrounding them.
So yes, there are other paranormal options, but honestly, we
really like werewolves. We like the animalistic aspect of them, the pack mentality,
and let’s face it, werewolves are sexy. And while there are werewolf novels and
series out there, we didn’t find any quite like our own. A werewolf pack
provided the type of infrastructure we needed for our series since we wanted
each book to focus on different characters, yet still be able to be intertwined
with the other characters. What better way to do that than with a pack? The
pack could provide a lot of drama, not only between the teens, but within the
families as well. We knew, besides romance, our focus would be on secrets and
lies, and The Red Ridge Pack we created is full of them, leaving us with plenty
of drama to work with. One little, well-meaning secret changed Allison and
Aiden’s lives forever, and the secrets and lies just keep on coming.
Pack of Lies
April 2012
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. Her 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.
Circle of Lies
December 2012
Life has always been easy for Aiden Wright. He’s smart, athletic,
funny, and the ladies adore him. But when tragedy strikes, Aiden discovers the
truth about who he really is, and his whole world comes crashing down around
him. Aiden thought that being a teenage werewolf was going to be awesome, but
it might just cost him the one girl who could make him whole.
Since her mother’s disappearance, Teagan Rhodes’s life has
been littered with her father’s empty beer cans and his hollow promises to
change. Convinced that others would only let her down, she keeps everyone at
arm’s length—but resisting Aiden’s charm is proving to be more difficult than
she thought. Throw in a psychotic werewolf hunter out to terminate the species,
and one wrong move, one wrong decision could destroy everything.

The books sound great, don't they? And I like the logic with the pack infrastructure. It's always great to learn how authors set up their worlds, true?
