For the past eight years, Smitty and Violet have formed the core of the marine mammal conservation group, Dolphin Friendly. The friction between them has been buffered by the presence of their boss and friend, Brody. But Brody's marriage removes him from the threesome and Smitty and Violet are forced to face the enmity that has simmered since their grad school breakup.
Sensing that their hostility covers something deeper, Brody sends them to transport a trained sea lion from Florida to New England. Will the forced togetherness bring them together or drive them apart? Will a broken truck and an overheating sea lion be the end of their friendship or the beginning of something sweeter?
Welcome to the world of Dolphin Friendly--a group of people who love marine mammals...and sometimes each other.
About the author
At some point during her childhood, Jessica Andersen figured out that keeping a dolphin in her bathtub was impractical, so she badgered her parents for a pony instead. In the years since, she's received her Ph.D. in Genetics, her patent agent's registration, her credentials as a professional horse trainer and riding coach, and recognition as an author of romantic fiction...but her fascination with marine mammals has never faded. Some of this novel comes from her years of volunteering in stranding rescue and marine mammal care. The rest comes from her heart, and she hopes it touches yours.
