A forbidden love, a sacred bloodline, and a powerful gift, plagues the last remaining descendant with an unspeakable burden and an unforgivable fate. Seventeen-year-old Elizabeth Anne Morgan is no stranger to the paranormal world. Haunted by voices and visions for most of her young life, she begins to question her sanity as a teen, setting her apart as an outcast in school. In quatrains and sacred manuscripts, a Chosen One is prophesied, yet Elizabeth does not know she is the descendant of the holiest woman who ever walked the earth. The whispers and cries, meant for her mind only, are those of lost souls pleading to be liberated by the true holder of the key. In her senior year of high school, Elizabeth meets two strangers, both who know her secret and who turn her world upside down. Meanwhile, her only friend Freddie, loyal, devoted and secretly in love with her, stands quietly in the shadows of her life as she begins to unfold the mystery of who she is destined to become.

Review High School with a twist of Paranormal and Romance, 16 and up, September 16, 2015By Valerie RobersonVerified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Descendant (The Descendant Series Book 1) (Kindle Edition)Review @ 12:52 amDescendant by L.J.AmodeoMy eyes are red and swollen from crying through the last few chapters as my heart went out to Beth with her pain and sorrow. This book is amazing! A fantastic read for kids in High School or just out of High School, for they can relate to the drama and bulls*** (sorry)! As for me, it's been 36 years since then, but boy did it bring back memories. This is high school with a huge twist of paranormal and romance. It will have you wanting more! The places it took place in reminds me of White Face Mountain and Lake Placid and Keeseville N.Y.. I could relate to the story in more ways than one, which had my emotions all over the place. I so very much enjoyed this book and highly recommend it to ages 16 and up. Looking forward to the next chapter!

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. What a cliffhanger! By Kelly Smith Reviews *I received a copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.*First of all, let me begin by saying that I was so glad to read a YA paranormal book that had the love story as the background rather than shoved down your throat in a flurry of whispered promises and too many adverbs.Let's start with the characters: Elizabeth is a teen with a lot of emotional baggage, after her father abandoned her mother and her and has now passed away. To top it off, Elizabeth can hear the voices of the dead, and as time progresses, they get worse, making doctors think she might be schizophrenic. She's lower class in a high class school and is constantly teased. Something I think 99% of my readers can relate to, myself included.Freddie is her best friend and secret admirer. He's happy-go-lucky and positive, always supporting her no matter what. He is the perfect BFF...but will he ever be more to Elizabeth?There is mystery and intrigue, plot twists and character development. The reader, along with Elizabeth, won't know what to do or who to trust at times. But they will know one thing: that Elizabeth is a very realistic and likable main character. She's just like you...except she's got a very difficult journey ahead of her.The book ends on a major cliffhanger, which makes you want to count the days till the book two is released. Unfortunately, that is also the reason this book gets a four instead of a five from me. I can't give a full rating when it's not a full story. I know I have said this before and it's true.But I loved reading this book. It was fun, engrossing and mysterious. LJ just might be the next big thing in YA fiction!
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Spellbinding!!!! By Barbara Gartman Wow!! I wish that I could give Descendant more than 5 stars. I was entranced from the first the beginning of this book. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough!!!! I hate that it ended in a cliffhanger only because I was so enchanted by the story and the characters that I couldn't get enough!!! All I can tell you is that you will most definitely have to purchase and read this book asap to find out why I am so enamored with this book. I can't wait to read the next installment. I very highly recommend Descendant!!
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Interesting read... By A. Lynn Powers Elizabeth might be going crazy. She hears voices and has horrible nightmares and headaches. She’s always been an outcast, but a new girl who has just moved to town befriends her in a heartbeat. And the new guy in town has his eyes set on her as well. It’s certainly no coincident that the two of them entered her life at the same time, and suddenly Beth is thrown into a struggle between demons and angels, and Beth is the key to unlocking everything in their world.My personal feelings of this book went up and down and up and down. Certain times I was on the edge of my seat clutching my head in shock and holding my breath in anticipation of what would happen next. Other times I was wishing the story would just hurry up and be over with because nothing exciting was going on or there was just too much repetition of information. I really didn’t like this one character, Beth’s friend Freddie, so every time he showed up, I couldn’t help wishing that he would leave. I also didn't realize there would be such heavy religious themes in this book, so readers who don't want to deal with that should be warned.The imagery of the story is excellent, and I especially love the psychological aspects of the story – trying to figure out if everything was just in Beth’s head or if it was part of this supernatural world she suddenly got stuck in. The writing, in general, if good, but could use a bit of polishing and maybe another round of editing. Overall, I was satisfied with this book and the story with a complex array of characters, though, in all honesty, I can’t really see myself returning for the next book in the series. I would have preferred a tighter ending and a more conclusive ending.
