Seventeen year old Ollie Miller is ready to leave all of her hurt feelings behind, but moving on seems impossible while living next door to her ex-best friend, Mateo. When curious earthquakes begin to shake and rip open the foundation of her small town, the ground becomes as unsteady as her feelings for him. When they fall, they fall hard…
Ollie’s disastrous attempt to save Mateo’s brother from falling into a curious chasm results in their descent into a cavernous wonderland. Ollie, Mateo, Jesse, and Alexis search for a way back home, and encounter a mysterious tribe of natives. Gabriel, the next in line to lead his people, is granted permission to guide them to the surface. On their treacherous journey, an overzealous elder threatens all of their lives, because he can’t risk them exposing his people, or the power he wields. The group discovers ancient secrets, unexpected truths, and uncharted feelings. Ollie must find a way out or risk being stuck in the caves forever—or worse, dead.
“Descent is a gripping debut that takes you on a roller coaster - a page turner that has you asking - what happens next. I loved every single word of it.” Fangirlish.com

About the author:
Over time my love for learning gravitated toward studying conspiracy theories and contradictions in our culture. My conclusions have ignited a passion to write compelling young adult fiction that incorporates legend, conjecture, fantasy, and conviction. I love being a wife, mother, friend, writer, and teacher. I began teaching high school English in 2002 and started blogging and podcasting in 2008. I have a brilliant husband, two redheads, and never imagined my life would ever be this fun!

I only think about them when I see an article or watch a tv program which mentions something like Atlantis. Authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Childs frequently write about them with a supernatural flare which I enjoy.
Thanks for this giveaway!

Sure I have thought about it, I actully even know a few people that talk about it, like living in the mountians or living somewhere no one can find them, that being said i don't no if there is a like atlantis type or in another plane but would be cool if there was and i love reading books with them thank you for the giveaway
Well only in books or tv shows really. I have crazy sister that thinks aliens are living here in secret, so i guess i have. thank you
I watch alot of futuristic movies and channels on tv. So yes, I believe that there could be a civilization out there somewhere.
I've never thought about secret civilization. But it would be neat to find one.
Hmm...I've never really thought about it. It would be interesting to find out about one though I'm not sure what I would do. Thanks for the giveaway!
