ABOUT Troubles in Paradise

After uprooting her life in the States, Irene Steele has just settled in at the villa on St. John where her husband Russ had been living a double life. But a visit from the FBI shakes her foundations, and Irene once again learns just how little she knew about the man she loved.

With help from their friends, Irene and her sons set up their lives while evidence mounts that the helicopter crash that killed Russ may not have been an accident. Meanwhile, the island watches this drama unfold — including the driver of a Jeep with tinted windows who seems to be shadowing the Steele family.

As a storm gathers strength in the Atlantic, surprises are in store for the Steeles: help from a mysterious source, and a new beginning in the paradise that has become their home. At last all will be revealed about the secrets and lies that brought Irene and her sons to St. John — and the truth that transformed them all.

ABOUT JESSICA MERCHANT

Jessica Merchant of How Sweet Eats is a full-time author, blogger, recipe developer and content creator. She is madly, outrageously, inexplicably in love with food. Bacon makes her beam. Chocolate makes her shout from the rooftops with joy. Vegetables are her biggest frenemy. (Her perfect world would include none of them.) She resides in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with her husband Eddie and new little chubbalove son, Max. She's currently trying to figure out how to get anything done as a new mom, other than smooching his little cheeks all day. Jessica has been featured in The New York Times, Washington Post, Fox News, The Today Show, Bon Appetit, Food and Wine, Glamour, Better Homes and Gardens, The Huffington Post, and Shape magazine, to name a few. In 2014, she released her first cookbook, the best-selling Seriously Delish. In her spare time, she loves reading, writing fiction, not running (ever) and practicing yoga. And margaritas.
