In a glittering underwater world, nothing is as it seems... For the past twelve months since her parents’ death, seventeen-year-old Miranda Sun has harboured a dark secret — a secret that has strained the close relationship she once shared with her older sister, Lauren. In an effort to repair this broken bond, Miranda’s grandparents whisk the siblings away on a secluded beach holiday. Except before Miranda gets a chance to confess her life-changing secret, she’s dragged underwater by a mysterious stranger while taking a midnight swim. Awakening days later, Miranda discovers that she’s being held captive in a glittering underwater city by an arrogant young man named Marko...the King of this underwater civilisation. Nineteen-year-old Marko intends to marry Miranda in order to keep his crown from falling into the sinister clutches of his half-brother, Damir. There’s only one problem. Miranda is desperate to return home to right things with her sister and she wants nothing to do with Marko. Trying to secure her freedom, Miranda quickly forms an alliance with Robbie — Marko’s personal guard. However, she soon discovers that even underwater, people are hiding dangerous secrets...Point Books During Captivate (Submerged Sun #1)

The whole mermaid thing seems to be coming up more and more in books and I have been intrigued by it, but so far the books I've read weren't able to deliver.After reading Captivate I felt like half of the book was missing, there were so many holes in it and lack of explanation, description and development.First of all, kidnapping a girl to force her into marriage and conceiving children is never the right idea. Taking the wrong girl, since Miranda is only seventeen and not of age, is completelyOk so I thought it was a mermaid book at first, I was expecting thisBut it turns out that it's an underwater civilization where everybody is human and apparently none of the women there are able to have children.Then the King, Marko, and his sister Sasha (I changed her name cause Sasha sounds more like an evil name) come up with the brilliant idea of kidnapping a girl from a beach and they send Markos best friend the lead guard and he gets the wrong girl because she was suppose to be 18 years

His elder sister, and Damir's twin, suggests kidnapping a girl from
I had hoped this was going to be a good book. I had been wanting to read it for awhile. However, this was just not that great. It really needed some kind of action.I felt bored throughout. On top of that I just didn't care too much for the main character. She spent too much time whining. It was really annoying. Needless to say I will not be reading anymore of this trilogy.
Our story begins on a midnight swim in Bobs bay, Australia. Lauren and Miranda are visiting their grandparents and spend every summer at the old holiday shack since they were born. It was the first time in almost a year the sisters spend any real time together or were really speaking to each other since the death of their parents, but before they could clear the air about what really happened on that faithful night, Miranda gets dragged underwater, drugged and taken captive. When she wakes she
