Maddy S Dolphin

When Maddy and her brother CJ arrive at Loutraki Bay for their annual summer break, they are looking forward to long days waterskiing with their dad and most of all, swimming with Indigo, the local dolphin.

And this time, he has an urgent message to tell her: the dolphins are under threat from a mysterious underwater noise that interferes with their sonar, causing them to lose their way at sea.

When the US President and his daughter arrive in Loutraki, Maddy and CJ see their chance to alert him to the dolphins' plight; but persuading him to call off the submarines will take a very risky plan...

When Cape Cod innkeeper Maddy Jamison takes in a group of marine biologists called Dolphin Friendly, she has no idea that they--and particularly their handsome leader Brody Davenport--will turn her life upside down. Ever since the deaths of her marine scientist parents, Maddy has hated the ocean that took them away from her, just as she has resented the profession that they loved more than their children. So how could she guess that she'd enjoy sharing her house with a self-destructive catfish named Dusty, a pair of interns obsessed with Latin names, and a bickering couple? And how could she predict that she'd fall for their leader, a man who loves the sea as much as she hates it? But as she and Brody grow closer, the question remains: Will they be able to find a compromise between land and sea, or will their love sink beneath the weight of their differences?

When the mermaid performers at Oceanica Marine Park turn violent and attack their handlers, it's Finn Jarvis' job to euthanize them. The work is dangerous, and he botches his latest assignment, causing the death of two additional—and expensive—Mer. His dream of becoming a superstar trainer seems lost until a newly-caught mermaid offers him the opportunity to prove himself. Erie isn't just any mermaid, she's an ocean-princess that's been ripped from her home. She doesn't know what the landfolk want from her, but she's determined to learn air-words and find out. Alone and voiceless, she watches as the other merfolk are broken into submission, but Erie refuses to be subjugated. To avoid the fate of Oceanica's other Mer and eventually make it home, she needs to make the crowds love her as something more than entertainment. While Finn trains Erie in her routine, she teaches herself English. Finn has always seen the Mer as ruthless aquatic predators, but Erie seems more human than fish. Soon he finds himself breaking the number one rule at Oceanica: "Never humanize the Mer." Finn's awe-inspiring routine breaks too many rules, and he's soon fired, with a new trainer taking over Erie's show. One that will do whatever it takes to break and silence her. Finn needs to free Erie before she's broken or killed by her new trainer… or snaps and kills the new trainer herself. To do that, he'll have to launch a campaign to take down one of the most popular attractions in the world, turn his back on his closest friends and family, and protect Erie from ever being captured again.
