The Chocolate Ship — Marissa Monteilh

After three years together, Mia can't help wondering if she's got a real future with Miles -- who's all that and then some, as long as the words "love" and "commitment" don't creep into the conversation.

En route to Paradise, anything can happen and anything goes. Wings are sprouted, taboos are tolerated, truths are revealed, hearts are broken and reassembled -- and lovin' is served up as hot as Caribbean spice.
