Victoria St. James has left home and has started work on a cruise ship far away from her home in Australia.  Excited, she tours the ship with her room mate and wonders that she sees the most handsome man in various places they visit, but her companion doesn’t.  Later, Miklos, a powerful gypsy shaman boards the ship as the new fitness trainer and the attraction is immediate.  He has dreamed of her and knows that she is his mate.  He wants to marry her before having sex but she wants the sex before marriage.  Victoria is a modern woman who has never had any problems enjoying and exploring her sexuality.  Miklos on the other hand is an old-world type, believing in marriage before sex and that the man is to provide and pleasure his woman.  Solving this problem will be the Sensation of the Seas. 

First of all, Cyndi Redding sure knows how to write a hot, erotic story!  Phew, the reader needs to keep the ice bucket very close when she reads the hot love scenes in this sensual but romantic story.  In most love stories, the hero and heroine just can’t wait to get down and do the deed so it was quite refreshing to meet Miklos, a man with old fashioned values who, although really wanting to, desperately, needed to get married first before sharing intimacies with the heroine.  His surprise at her expertise was amusing and one wonders where he had been hiding all this time.  This reviewer enjoyed this read and the plot kept her captivated until the last page.  How would these two love-struck lovers get over their problems, their misunderstandings, and most of all, the prejudices of others to fulfill their dreams and longings?
