Paradise Syndrome by Louise Hall

“Thirty-three is the number of rocks I thought I would have to fill my pockets with so I could sink to the bottom of Puget Sound and never resurface.”

Cate Warner has two happy, healthy children, another on the way and she’s finally been reunited with Kian again after five months of living on separate continents after he was transferred to Seattle F.C. and she and the children stayed behind in Manchester to finish out the school year.

From the outside looking in, you would think that she’d got it all so why does she find herself one night, after her children have gone to bed, walking outside to the wooden dock at the back of their gorgeous new house and seriously thinking about drowning herself in the frigid waters of Puget Sound?
