Format:Paperback
I loved this book because I think we all harbour the illusion that escape and perfect romance are waiting if only we could get away from our job and our day-to-day lives. So when Ella gets the opportunity to go to Jamaica on a diving holiday and there meets the seemingly angelic Raphael she thinks her dreams are coming true. BUT sometimes you need a bit of real life in your love life for it to truly make you happy........In this book you get all the pleasure of hot sun, sand and escapism with a hefty dose of wit and wisdom and cold Irish sea water too........

I love this book also!
Great, interesting storyline!
The Jamaican part of the story gives the reader clear pictures in the mind and makes you want to visit.
I love and can relate to the character (which is always good!)
and you want her to do the right thing!
Although I won't say anything, I love the ending! very inspirational!

Going Down takes Kate Thompson's writing to a whole new level. It's a real treat to spend more time in Thompson's whimsical fictional world in the company of Ella Nesbit, and revel in her toe-curlingly honest, funny yet touching account of where her sense of adventure leads her. What an intriguing idea to cross the frustrations and petty aggravations of the office environment and everyday malaise with an exotic sub-aqua world, where a frenetic fiddling session in a pub somewhere on a windswept coast of Ireland can translate with such ease to her adventures on the mystic sun-kissed island of Jamaica. It's a sexy, thrilling, romantic tale, and Thompson even manages to include an inspirational message which she delivers in her inimitable self-deprecating way.
Thompson confidently carries us along at page-turning speed with her unique sense of humour and wonderful style. She obviously takes great pleasure in her writing and savours her stories. A good, satisfying read that leaves you feeling like you've just spent a great night out catching up with your best friend.
