Susie despises Sunny, and sometimes even gets a sinking feeling that Sunny is out to hurt her.

It’s not going well. But isn’t rock bottom the perfect place to start a climb? She decides it’s now or never.

Jodie Jackson is leaving her London life, her career and her husband behind. She'd like a chance to turn back the clocks, but she'll settle for some peace and quiet on her brother Bill's houseboat.

If it isn't Marilyn, who cleans for Bill and is under strict instructions to look after Jodie, then it's Ned, the noisy sculptor on the next-door houseboat.
