❇️ 2018 WATTYS WINNER! The Originals category ❇️ - "The Breakfast Club" meets "Nancy Drew" in this most unusual YA Mystery. SUMMARY: Five high school students, with little in common other than being descendants of the town founders, are forced to work on a history project together. But when their history project uncovers evidence of a long-buried town secret, the kids must piece together the clues behind their discovery before its legacy comes back to haunt them. ***** Using ACTUAL, archival material (some dating as far back as 1776), The Descendants weaves a tale of mystery and intrigue, constructed entirely from real photographs, documents, and snippets of history from a small, rural town in New Hampshire. What Dan Brown did with conspiracy theories in "The DaVinci Code" and Ransom Riggs did with historical photographs in "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children," I will attempt to do in "The Descendants," but with teen protagonists and the Cheshire County Historical Society. :-) Why? 'Cause I'm crazy like that! Yeah, I know...History?! Blah! But it actually turned out really fun! :-)

COMPLETE Living alone in an enormous, intimidating house, it seems Danny has no family, no friends, no job, no background and not even a surname - at least not one he's willing to share. Your typical bad boy with a troubled past? Perhaps. Or is he actually a good guy with a terrible secret? His striking good looks and the mystery surrounding him catch the attention of Ariel, a feisty investigative journalist who is never too far from her next fling. Danny is in her sights. The pair have an instant attraction but a promise not to fall for one another works more in Danny's favour than Ariel's who is eager to find out more about her lover's secrets - even if it means dredging up an old investigation she should leave well alone. Ariel finds stuff out for a living, but can she uncover what is going on in Danny's world without damaging her career? And can Danny escape whatever he is running from, or will he one day get caught?

I am going to be reckless with my soul, I am going to kiss boys I don't love and shut people out and destroy myself because I can not love anyone they way I love him. So I will ignore all texts I get and get drunk instead, because vodka shots don't burn as much as seeing him kiss that girl. And I will do regrettable things that I won't regret and scream that I hate him. But at the end of the night I will fall asleep with tear stained cheeks and still, love him.
