I find it fascinating that you tried to picture it from the culprit's point of view.
I wonder how she justified their terrorism acts.
I'm definitely going to add this to my bookshelves.
Congrats on the BOTD.

Dorothy May Mercer is a highly skilled author of crime and investigative stories. Notably, the author adeptly weaves in elements of romance while also delivering a captivating thriller. I am eager to discover the unfolding action between Kelly and Tom and their battle against the terrorist.

The subtle references to the real world, like the commentary on the First Lady, are a great touch. It adds realism and relatability to the story, making it more engaging. I appreciate authors who incorporate those little details, and it sounds like Dorothy May Mercer did a commendable job in that regard.

The book talks about the story of how Kelly and Tom are having fun on their honeymoon until Kelly discovers a container that contains a high tech-lab. This container is owned by Dear Leader, who wants to launch a bomb on America. I like how the story is easy to read and how the characters are well developed. Nice review.

I'm a bit surprised to learn that the author does not suggest this book to readers looking for suspenseful thrillers given the fact that this story's novel does sound suspenseful since it is about the main characters encountering a group of terrorists and trying to stop them. However, this is one aspect of the book that made me more intrigued.
Congratulations to the author for BOTD!

The author's use of multiple perspectives sounds intriguing. It's refreshing to see the world through different eyes, especially through the perspective of a non-American character. It adds depth and a unique viewpoint. I'm really curious to experience the tourist locations from that lens.

It must've been so unexpected to come across terrorists on your honeymoon. I am sure the newly married couple had the most exceptional and heroic honeymoon!

I enjoy reading books with lots of action, therefore I'm sure I'll enjoy reading Dorothy May Mercer's E M P Honeymoon since it sounds fascinating. Before Kelly and Tom Turbulo attempt to foil whatever evil scheme the terrorist group had in mind, I want to see how they went about discovering what the terrorist gang was up to. Superb review.

On my honeymoon, I certainly wouldn't want to run into any terrorists! After reading a novel by this author that I really liked, I believe I should read this one as well. I appreciate the evaluation. Thank you for winning the BOTD!
