Plot Synopsis

Chloe is halfway through her PhD program in marine mammalogy (the study of whales) at one of Miami's top universities. She pulls long hours at the lab, but what she loves most is being out on the water with the majestic creatures. But given her competitive field, she doesn't get that opportunity as much as she'd like. At the top of her class, she is considering applying for a highly sought-after scholarship that would fund the last two years of her doctorate. Dr. Andrea Ware Chloe's mentor, encourages her to go beyond their local waters. Dr. Ware convinces her to expand her studies to cover whales in the Pacific Northwest, where she would gain more experience out in the field, and hopefully the confidence to apply for the scholarship. While there, Chloe meets a whale watching tour guide and they soon find themselves bonding over more than just Orcas.
