E M P Honeymoon by Dorothy May Mercer is a book in the McBride series that has 16 chapters and contains a total of 252 pages. It is a work of science fiction that revolves around the lives of a newlywed couple, Tom and Kelly. Kelly is the younger sister of Senator Michael McBride. Her husband, Sergeant Tom Turbulo, is a police cop who works for the Carson City Police Department. They both went to Honduras, Central America, to enjoy their honeymoon. One morning, they parted ways in an attempt to explore the place. Tom resolved to take some air on a dive boat while his wife surveyed the environment. Kelly entered a store called 'La Pocilga,' a Spanish word for a pigsty. It wasn't necessarily where they raised pigs, but a toy pig store. She hoped to purchase some piggy items for her nephews and nieces back home. She found a door that led to a suspicious computer lab and didn't know the store was undercover for a secret assignment. A member of the terrorist group caught her, but she managed to escape his grasp. Tom and Kelly decided to investigate this incident, which led to a shocking revelation of a planned Electromagnetic Pulse Explosion, intended to destroy the United States. Will they join forces and avert this mission? Read a copy of this book to find out.

E M P Honeymoon has a thrilling plot and an exciting sequence of events that never get boring. The scientific terms and concepts used in the book were carefully explained by the author, making it easy for the reader to understand. I couldn't easily predict how events would turn out. The book arouses curiosity in the reader; it made me read till the end. Despite being a book in the series, it is surprising that one can read it as a stand-alone. I must commend Mercer for showcasing her expertise in this particular series. I love how well-developed the characters were, as it made them feel more realistic. Another concept I admire is how the author organized the book into headings, despite being divided into chapters. It reduced confusion about where characters were and what they did at a particular time. I'm impressed that Tom and Kelly put their honeymoon on hold to protect their beloved country. They exhibited a high level of patriotism toward America, which is commendable. It made me understand that important missions must be carried out, notwithstanding the circumstances.

I loved how Cynthia and Sky from the previous series were brought in and got actively involved in the collective quest to track down the nuclear warhead. There's nothing I disliked about this book. The characters were well-rounded, making their actions relatable to the reader. I'm glad I picked up this book to read and review.

I rate E M P Honeymoon a 5 out of 5 stars, as I don't see any reason to give anything less. It is well-edited, as I could not spot any errors, and I applaud the editor for doing a great job. Readers would gain lots of knowledge concerning nuclear wars, the adverse effects of technology, and the deadliness of superflares from this book.

I highly recommend it to readers that enjoy thrillers, action, and science fiction. This book is suitable for both teenagers and adults alike.

This sounds like an interesting piece of work. At first, I assumed it would be about love and honeymoon. But your intriguing review introduced the thrills and actions involved.
Well-done.

EMP Honeymoon is a book that features action, crime and thriller which I'm a fan of. It talks about a newlywed couple whose honeymoon was disrupted when a criminal activity was observed. Nice review.

Dorothy May Mercer's books always promises action, romance, and suspense. This is a great book, although it belongs to a series, it can be read as a stand-alone. Great review.

This book as your rightly pointed out is a series but can be read as a stand alone. The author did well not to make so many references to the previous books so that one who is a first time reader can understand.

Reading this book was interesting to some extent. However, I think the suspense in the book was not strong enough. Good review.

This is an interesting and enjoyable novel, it is filled with suspense, action, and drama. Dorothy May Mercer did great work in this novel as much as she did in Cynthia and Dan: CyberWar. Great book! And Great review!

I really felt for the couple. They could have spent much free time during their honeymoon but it was cut short by terrorist threats. I admire Kelly for her zeal and courage.

E M P Honeymoon by Dorothy May Mercer is an intriguing book. A couple went on a honeymoon with the least idea that it would evolve into something else. The book was worth the read.

This sounds like an interesting read. I like that Cynthia and Sky were also a part of this story. It brings in a level of connection for those who have read Cynthia and Dan by Dorothy. Nice review.
