Publisher's Synopsis
On the surface, Beatrice has it all...
Three angelic children, her ideal job, the house of her dreams and an even dreamier husband. But when her boss insists her teaching skills are falling short of student expectations, Beatrice discovers her issues with communication extend to her personal life too. With that, she embarks on a journey of self-improvement, which has near catastrophic effects on her marriage. Hoping a change of scenery will be the cure for her troubles, she takes her work from the capital city of Dublin to the windy west coast of Ireland. Unfortunately, the Atlantic sea air seems to play tricks with her mind, as does a local fisherman who delights in charming her. And the more time she spends with him, the more her academic career and once-solid marriage begin to feel like a hazy memory. Can Beatrice re-establish her successful professional life and reconnect with her husband before her midlife crisis gets the best of her? And when tragedy strikes, can she hold it together and make her true feelings abundantly clear?
