Cape May by Chip Cheek
4.0
They should have gone to Florida....
Cape May was not what I expected. It's not the lovey dovey sunny beachy time you might think a newly married couple might spend their honeymoon. It's a seductive and isolating journey of discovery, loss of innocence and betrayal. I consumed it with reckless abandon and was left trembling and passionately moved.
Henry and Effie start their honeymoon discovering each other in a sleepy off-season New Jersey beach town. After meeting a few rich and carefree, glamorous and flirtatious new friends, they decide to extend their stay with trepidation, but soon find themselves in intoxicating situations filled with excessive amounts of gin and tonic and sensual erotic temptations.
Equal parts stimulating and provacative, the writing is an aphrodisiac for a reader. It's steamy and tantalizing, and a passionate exploration of the transgressions of a marriage that just might be doomed before it even begins.
