About this eBook

When the tide of life threatens to pull her under, Melanie Akamu discovers an unexpected lifeline in the most unlikely of places.

Battling a relentless cancer diagnosis, 17-year-old Melanie finds solace in the healing waters of her Hawaiian home. But when she encounters Kona, a critically injured dolphin entangled in a fishing net, their fates become inexplicably intertwined. As Melanie fights for her life, she discovers a renewed purpose in Kona's struggle for survival.

Together with Chase, the new guy with a troubled past, Melanie launches a daring campaign to save Kona and expose the corporate giant responsible for devastating their ocean paradise. But as her own health deteriorates, Melanie must confront the possibility that saving Kona might be her final legacy.

In a race against time, Melanie learns that sometimes the biggest waves of change start with the smallest ripples of hope. Will her unwavering spirit be enough to turn the tide not just for Kona, but for herself and the entire community?

"Kona" is a heart-wrenching tale of courage, love, and the unbreakable bond between a girl and a dolphin. It reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we have the power to create our own waves of change.
