We are over
the moon excited about the cover reveal for Kallie Ross' DESCENT!! DESCENT is a
Young Adult fantasy that comes out June 9th!!
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.
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!
