I read a lot of books that are easily classified. Honor C is not one of those.The story of a man who is in love with another, but family dictates he find his life elsewhere and it drives Honor to marry a woman who bears him a son. They are happy, so they think, but Honor has never forgotten Jorge, nor the love they shared. When Jorge returns to town, all those feelings are forced to the surface.This is a harsh story, told in three views: Honor, Jorge, and Becky, Honor's wife.Each voice is different. Each one has to deal with their feelings. They need to come to terms with life the way it is now, not the way that each of them expected it would go.A wife spurned has the opportunity to do incalculable damage to the man her husband loves. Will she take it or will she choose a different path, one that can bring peace?A husband who ultimately has to decide if the closet is too small and he needs to step out into the light to celebrate the love he shared with the man who held his heart.And a lover who was once spurned and has never found love again. Is he strong enough to accept the love he is offered or will he reject is to save himself?C. Zampa did an outstanding job with these characters. You feel their fears and longings. You want to hold them to save the pieces that threaten to fly apart. But you know you can only watch as it comes to the inevitable conclusion.And that one is a sight to behold.Lucky's 5 sweet pea review appears at mrsconditreadsbooks.com/index.php/?p=12880
