I found this romance very interesting because of all the observations about dolphin life. You learn something new everyday reading romances. The dolphins really made the book.

Whimsy is just the right word to describe this book. Take a 19th-century woman researching dolphins (before swimsuits) and a society of Atlantis-worshipers who believe that she is the one foretold, add a stuffy professor, and what do you get? A delightful tale!

Don't neglect to read the Author's note at the end--it transitions into an epilogue.

This book starts slow, gains momentum through out the whole book and ends with a solid ending. It was a worthwhile read and I enjoyed reading it.
