Please Stop the Carnival

When my husband and I moved to St. Croix, in the US Virgin Islands, all we could imagine was a perfect life in Paradise. Five days after our arrival, Hurricane Marilyn hit the island. We learned quickly that vacationing and actual relocation are entirely different. This memoir offers a look at the real side of island life with a little humor, humility, history and a handbook - all thrown together. The names and places are all real.
