E.M.P Honeymoon by Dorothy May Mercer

The author shares the story of a couple who has just tied the knot. As expected of newlyweds in the modern world, a honeymoon has been arranged. They are about to be locked away in their fantasy world while they enjoy exclusive luxury and build memories. Kelly and Tom have booked the Barefoot Resort for their honeymoon.

However, we are soon snapped into reality in a turn of events, from fantasy to mystery. Kelly stumbles upon a place that looks like a plotting ground for a scheme. It all starts when her tour bus stops for a while. She notices a gift shop nearby and decides to get some gifts for her nephew. Little did she know that this little journey would change her world.
What does she uncover in her detour? Why is she alone, and where is her husband in all this? Isn't this their honeymoon? Well, read the book to find out all the juicy details.

I have a few favorite characters in the book, one of whom is Kelly, who keeps discovering things, and Dr. Peter Kinny, who specializes in Nuclear Physics energy. The chapter begins with him delivering a lecture, and one could deduce his sense of humor as he teaches hard subjects with the most basic illustrations. His students like him, and he is well-known within his sphere of influence. I particularly like his interview with Henry Haven-Harbinger, where he shares his views about Nuclear energy and the danger it poses to America and other countries if it falls into the wrong hands. I learned about energy, the effect of solar flares, and the dangers they pose to the ozone layer. He shared his concern about the vulnerability of space and how the state has no defense against a man-made E.M.P., which stands for Electro Magnetic Pulse. His opinion is presented in a compelling narrative, and I find it intellectually stimulating.
There are different characters in the book, all serving varying purposes at each point they were introduced. I like that the author uses unique scenarios that help readers understand each of them and their roles. The characters gradually develop as the story progresses, and they all meaningfully contribute to the greater picture as the story unfolds.
A typical example of an action in this book is the scene where Colonel Rhee Su-jin is driving to meet General Lee on a bad road. As they make their way up an abandoned mountain road, five passengers hang tightly in the car and call out for her to slow down. In response to their request, she presses harder on the gas pedal and yells, "Silence." It feels like a scene out of Fast and Furious. I could only imagine the expression on their faces.
I appreciate the well-incorporated action, and readers can feel the suspense. The author's writing skill is commendable. The book is professionally edited, and I enjoyed every bit of the story. I did not notice any errors in this book, and for this reason, I rate it 5 out of 5 stars. I did not find anything to dislike about the book. This is not your regular honeymoon love and romance book. It is filled with action, thrills, suspense, and mystery. I recommend the book to both youth and adults who like action-filled books.

Your review confirms for me that Dorothy Ray Mercer puts much more into her books than just romance. I read another of her books, "Cynthia and Dan" and was as pleased with it as you were with "E M P Honeymoon." I am interested in learning about nuclear energy, solar flares, and electro magnetic pulses. Thank you for letting me know how the characters develop as the plot progresses. I like reading novels that are well paced. Thank you for turning me on to another book by this quality author. I will add it to my bookshelves. Great review! :techie-studyinggray:

A fun honeymoon turns into horror for the couple. I have read other reviews on this story, but I have to admit that you provided a fresh perspective on it. Your description of the action sequence and characters reflects your in-depth analysis of the story.
