All aboard the pleasure ship!
Deacon and Lukas board the passenger ship Aphrodite for a two week adventure. Lukas is the outgoing blonde handsome one who gets a girl everywhere he goes. His friend Deacon is the shy, mousy looking one who’d rather spend time working, reorganizing his databases.
While Lukas goes off to do who knows who (evidentially twins), Deacon is left alone. That is until crew member Romana shows up with a pile of books. She had overheard Deacon’s conversation with his buddy and quickly realized that the regular goings on at the pleasure ship wouldn’t be his cup of tea. There is an immediate attraction.
Pleasure Ship is a little on the short side. Therefore, much of the action is hurried reducing the romance and sexual tension inherent in this story. I would have liked to see the romance part drawn out more to indicate that the foundations of a real relationship beyond sex had begun before the two supposedly shy individuals brought out the handcuffs and sex toys. Either that or go straight for the obvious erotica story of Lukas and his hot encounter with the twins.
