Honey

In the moment that he saw her, in the first shock of his delight, he knew that he would never get her out of his bones. Roland Ismay first meets Honey Harper at a film premiere. She is thirty, standing on a ruby carpet and surrounded by admirers. They marry in 1962 and live in opulent bliss, everything going swimmingly: until the arrival of Brian, Honey's sixteen-year-old stepson. Brian is serious and shy, eager to escape the claustrophobic clutches of his family. Honey, meanwhile, is quickly bored with married life, and determined to seduce him by any means necessary; she is used to men finding her irresistible. But Brian proves to be a different matter altogether . . . Honey is a deliciously scandalous novel of seduction laced with irony, wit and decadence, as Jenkins explores lust, love and the pitfalls that come with clinging to the last dregs of youth.
