While a fun, fictional beach read, Pause... and Effect tells an honest, informative tale of what can unexpectedly happen to midlife women as they reach menopause and how those changes can affect a woman's life.
In this coming-of-old-age story, when 52-year-old Lyndsey Barnes abruptly snaps and quits her job, she finds herself unwittingly stepping aboard a menopause-fueled roller coaster that she clings to for dear life as it plummets to the depths of despair and through life's twists and turns.
It's not until she trades the rainy Pacific Northwest for the sun-kissed shores of the U.S. Virgin Islands that she discovers what she's been missing-a progressive and informed doctor, a network of supportive friends and mentors, and the memory of long-lost dreams. With these keys, she's able to unlock repressed trauma that has held her back, and with a newfound belief in herself, she redefines her Third Act, using youthful aspirations to propel her to the pinnacle of life.
