Ilustration As Books Captivate (Submerged Sun #1)
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...

Ok 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 yearsCaptivate is an ambitious novel, and although I saw a lot of potential in the blurb, I have to confess I'm mostly disappointed by it.Here is the premise of Captivate: Marko is the king of an under-water settlement of humans, and he's usurped his psychotic elder brother Damir's throne. His people can no longer reproduce, a side effect of living underground with no sunlight and other things that humans generally need to survive. His elder sister, and Damir's twin, suggests kidnapping a girl from
*Review can also be found at Jackie's Book World :)* Vanessa Garden has written such a captivating story that has made it to my favorite's list. From the beginning to the very end, I was intrigued and fascinated by the world she has created.

She is told she is to marry the king, Marko. Miranda is determined to be free, trying to escape anyway she can. She is guarded by Robbie, a handsome boy not much older than her. She becomes close to him,
Personal Response: Captivate is a very weird and off kind of book at first. In the beginning, I had no idea what to expect whatsoever. As the relationships and plot began to fall together I was really, should I say, captivated by the book. Miranda is a bold and desirable girl, who happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Miranda, being as stubborn as she is, doesnt do well as a captive in Marin. The plot becomes more, and more, mysterious near the end, when everything really takes
