Sarah Hayes
If you ever catch a glimpse of me staring off into the distance and my lips moving quietly to myself, just know…it's going to be a good story.
About Sarah
Sarah Hayes was born and raised in the amazing dry heat of far-northern California where she graduated from a local university with her teaching credential, started her family known as “Hurricane Hayes”, and discovered her love for writing while her children were napping. In 2015 she galloped into the publishing world with her children’s book, Cowboy Wyatt, (currently in need of new illustrations before getting relaunched). And after four and a half years of finally putting her credential to use homeschooling, (while trying to pay back her student loans with snotty kisses- the only form of payment she received), her family jumped into the steam-bath land of southeastern Tennessee where her children re-entered the public school world (covered in prayers by their mama), and Sarah re-entered the land of daydreams and writing. Despite the humidity, they still reside in Tennessee where they have discovered their infatuation with Pickleball, and Sarah gets to dedicate time to working on her debut novel, Into the Veil.
Fun Facts
As a child I did not understand why people would ever drink tea…as an adult I drink it daily…maybe hourly.
I have a massive sweet tooth…but I can’t stand honey or sugar in my tea.
My husband and I were high school sweethearts, and I still have all of the notes we passed each other in the hallways (benefits of being a teen in the pre-cell phone era).
I have five children and haven’t slept in about 15 years.
I love Jesus more than anything…even fresh-out-of-the-oven, warm, gooey chocolate chip cookies.
After passing out on a mission trip to Ukraine, I was given radioactive water to drink from a lake affected by the Chornobyl disaster in Russia…I may or may not have superpowers now.
I am an essential oil fanatic. You will often smell me before you see me…But I usually smell good.
Discover Sarah’s Debut Novel
Into the Veil is a combination of Harry Potter’s story of destiny, combined with the intensity of Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games and a sprinkle of Star Trek’s Borg Collective.

Into The Veil
The second Anolli slips into the veil, the countdown begins. Hunted by a curse that has erased her memories, Anolli must rely on Titus, a stranger who she feels oddly connected to, in order to stay alive. When villagers begin to disappear, people blame her, and soon, she is forced to live with the only man in the village to have survived being taken by the curse – a crazy old man who might kill her before the curse does. The village's own dark secret soon springs from the shadows, separating Anolli from the one person vowing to protect her. She must remember her purpose and identity or risk losing the lives of more loved ones. But Anolli is running out of time, and the longer it takes, the more lives are at stake. His life was not supposed to be one of them.
