June 25, 2024This is already a short book, why would I want one of the MCs descriptively in a threesome right before he’s about to meet the other MC?

4 seaboard stars!
This was an extremely enjoyable read with just the correct amount of humor and spice.
After sneaking on board the NautiCaribbean Pride Cruise ship in a drunken state, JJ Carrington (Jackson) is caught by security and forced to remain on board until the next port of call. Once there he will be kicked off the ship to fend for himself.
Cory Wynn has been working on a cruise ship for roughly a year. On this particular cruise, the Pride Cruise, he lucks out an gets his own cabin. He just wants to see the world and hopefully find "the one," but work consumes all of his time.
After being brought before the head of security and the ship's Captain, Jackson is told he can either stay in the brig or share a cabin with a worker. Hungover and out of resources, not to mention self-respect, he chooses the cabin. But his choice is dependent upon that worker agreeing to let him share the cabin.
Cory is summoned to the Captain's office and given an explanation of Jackson's situation. Having already "run into" the handsome stowaway and instantly disliking him, seeing him as a privileged and spoiled brat, Cory's first instinct is to let Jackson spend the remainder of his trip in the brig. But the he decides to let the man share his cabin so he can get some revenge on Jackson.
After Cory lays down his rules to Jackson to stay in his cabin, he returns to work. Jackson is totally humiliated and humbled, and takes to his bunk to sleep off the remainder of his hangover.
What follows is a unexpected twist for Jackson and Cory. After years of partying and traveling, Jackson decides it's time for a change. And his plan shocks everyone, particularly Cory.
So come aboard the NautiCaribbean Pride Cruise and meet a most interesting cast of characters, situations and themed parties. As most of the story takes place on the ship, the world building is limited but sufficient. The dialogue is snarky, humorous and ultimately caring. I honestly hope the author writes a sequel to this book, focusing on some of the secondary characters like Johnny and a few of the kitchen staff.

3.5 stars. A nice uncomplicated story which was easy and quick to read. The instant turnaround in Jackson's behaviour was rather abrupt and I would have felt better if the relationship between the MCs hadn't been so very fast. The end of the book was very satisfying.

June 22, 2024Below Deck is an fairly low angst, opposites attract, forced proximity story set in the multi-authored Pride Cruise 2024 series.
When the only bed available for stowaway JJ Carrington is in the staff quarters with a man who not only caught his eye, but had a front row seat to the shenanigans that got him there... Sparks fly in so many directions and it's fun to watch Cory come out of his shell and JJ find a piece of himself as he tries to make restitution to the cruise ship for his less than stellar behaviour.
This was a fun take on the Pride Cruise theme and had some true highlights, including JJ's defense of Cory and some of their initial encounters when sharing a cabin. If you're looking for a different approach to the Pride Cruise theme with a bit of naughty and nice thrown in, you'll want to add Below Deck to your TBR.

This book was one I did not want to put down! Once I started this story, I had to continue reading it. Jackson is an almost 30 party-boy, and the son of a wealthy hotel owner. Cory is a fun, and hardworking busser for NautiCarribean. When the two of them meet it is dislike at first sight for Cory. Jackson is a drunk party-boy that is promiscuous, and that’s what he sees. When Jackson gets in trouble for stowing away on the NautiCarribean, he tries his best to make up for his mistakes and to turn his life around. Him getting roomed with Cory was a total coincidence but it was like fate intervening in their lives. You will really enjoy this book if you love enemies-to-lovers and redemption stories. This was an amazing romance and I highly recommend it!

Finding a New Direction . . .
This is a journey that spoiled drunken stowaway Jackson Carrington (“JJ”) finds himself in when he parties too hard and wakes up on a cruise where he was definitely not one of the paying guests! With the ship fully booked and no extra accommodations to provide for Jackson, other than the brig, crew member Cory Wynn ultimately ends up offering to share his own quarters with the spoiled rich stowaway. This situation will have quite an impact on both of them. Will it be the beginning of something special? Can it lead to positive changes in their lives? Or is it simply an embarrassing moment they will experience then soon forget? Growing up can often have its painful moments; but having the courage to accept an opportunity that allows Jackson to change his ways can make all the difference in his future. Will he make the better choice this time?

Below Deck Is a part of the multi-author series, Pride Cruise 2024. This is a cute romance between a spoiled playboy and a cruise ship employee. This is an enemy to lovers' romance with all the good feels. If the other books are like this one, I can't wait to read the rest.

This book Is a part of the multi-author series Pride Cruise 2024 and each book can be enjoyed as a standalone. This is the story of JJ Carrington and Cory Wynn. JJ is a spoiled playboy who drinks way too much. He joins up with some cruise passengers and parties way too hard. He sneaks on board with the guests and is found to be a stowaway. Thanks to familial connections, he is not arrested but stays on board in the crew quarters as there are no available rooms onboard. Cory is a nice young man who enjoys his job as a server onboard the ship. He already saw JJ acting in fine form during the day. He is not happy to learn that JJ will be staying with him until the next port. JJ is not allowed to go anywhere without Cory so they will have forced proximity. Neither is really happy about the situation but they will try to make the best of it. This is their story. I know the book is short but I found it really hard to accept the drastic attitude and aptitude changes that we see in the book. I have read many books by this author and this book is not among my favourites. It is no reflection on how the book is written. It is easy to read. It is simply a matter of my personal preference. If you are looking for a low angst, opposites attract, forced proximity story set in the multi-authored Pride Cruise 2024 series; you will enjoy this one.

JJ Carrington is a rich playboy, drunken more often than not. A bit of a manho, he lives a shiftless, no consequences life. Until he makes the mistake of stowing away on a cruise ship. His father's friendship with the captain keeps him out of the brig and he ends up in a bunk with a crewmember.
Cory Wynn loves his life as a cruise ship waiter/busser. It's hard work, but has it's perks, 8 weeks on, 2 weeks off. And men in speedos. Or less, as this is a Pride cruise. He's not so happy to be rooming with the gorgeous but obnoxious drunk.
This is a tale of redemption and finding where you belong. Jackson gets a redo on life, dropping his partying nickname. He finds a home with the close knit crew. And finds love with sweet, sunshiny Cory.
Lots of steam, but also sweet moments, like dancing under a moonlit sky and stargazing. A great storyline. Strong secondary characters. Descriptive worldbuilding. A fun peek into the life of ship crew members.
An enjoyable, quick read. But what else would you expect, it's BL Maxwell.

Humiliation can motivate life altering change. JJ is a son of privilege, used to getting his way in spite of any rules. He is slowly growing tired of the rut he's fallen into and opening his mind to outside himself. After partying one night, he follows his fellow partygoers onto the ship, basically becoming a stowaway. He is discovered not being a legitmate passenger and detained, his privilege gives him 'options'. Cory, has been working on the ship for the past year. He was hoping to meet and fall in love with his forever man. JJ and Corey are forced to share a cabin until JJ is dropped off. There is instant dislike but once they start getting to know each other, they learn first impressions, can be misleading and the other person may not be so obnoxious. Growth, acceptance, openness to change and continuous improvement a willingness and a bit of snark, make this a fun story. Nicely done. I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is a cute story in the Pride Cruise series, and the blurb describes it very well. When Jackson is caught as a stowaway and will be sharing Corey’s cabin until he is put off the ship at the next port, what begins as an uncomfortable situation soon becomes more one of respect and mutual attraction as Jackson makes some realizations about himself and some decisions to affect his future. Interesting characters, an unexpected situation, lots of long hours and hard work, and the chance for a HEA for these two men. Entertaining and engaging, in what I could see as a realistic situation based on cruises I have taken. A fun read.

I really enjoyed this book. I was quick to get hooked to the storyline. I really liked both Cory and JJ, though they were kind of opposites. JJ was a bit of a mess and finally gets into trouble that he can't wiggle out of; Cory's working hard and not happy having to take responsibility for JJ who's snuck onto the cruise ship before getting caught and now sharing his cabin. JJ has a good heart though and I enjoyed seeing how their relationship would develop.
I listened to this audiobook narrated by Daniel Downs. I've never heard him before, but I liked his tone of voice. I had no trouble distinguishing between the characters. I hope to listen to him again.
Overall: 4 stars
Performance: 4 stars
Story: 4 stars

His familial connections keep him from trouble.
Cory is a crew member, and he's definitely not impressed with Jackson's stellar behavior.
They're forced to bunk together, and initially, there's just animosity between them.
Slowly, they get to know one another, and Jackson actually begins to change and realizes that he wants more with Cory while Cory also feels the same way.

Drinking and hooking up is all that Jackson does. When his most recent binge has him as a stowaway on a cruise ship, he wakes up to find himself in a strange bed sharing a room with a cutie he vaguely remembers. The last thing Cory wanted was to be saddled with an entitled rich guy rooming with him until he can be taken to the next port.
But soon Jackson realizes how nice Cory is and he wants to be a better man. Paying his way and giving back is what he wants to do but a position working on the ship washing dishes falls into his lap!
This sweet and sexy story is a great beachside read!.

I found Below Deck to be both charming and suspenseful—it was definitely a page-turner. The setting added a unique and intriguing backdrop, and the pacing kept me hooked from start to finish. The characters were romantic, complex, and felt very real, with just the right amount of vulnerability and strength. There were moments of heroism that made me root for them even more. I’d recommend this book to someone looking for a sweet, heartfelt romance with a dash of mystery and suspense. It's perfect for readers who enjoy emotional depth and a compelling plot that keeps you invested until the last page.
June 20, 2024
This was a fun and enjoyable read! Cory seemed like a sweetheart from the beginning and stayed true to himself throughout the whole story. Jackson was a fun loving guy that seemed a little spoiled at the beginning but showed he just needed the chance to become his true self. I loved seeing the change come over him when he found something and someone to make him truly happy! These two were a very cute couple in this somewhat fast paced romance! Very enjoyable and entertaining read!.

This was a very adorable story but with some added heat.
Rich boy JJ Carrington goes on a binge and ends up stowing away on a cruise ship where he placed into Cory Wynn’s cabin.
This is a mild enemy to lovers paired but low angst with some really steamy nights.
The MCs were loveable. I love the back-and-forth between viewpoints because you learn a lot more about a moment.
I would love more stories between Cory and JJ.

This was a relatively cool concept with a pride cruise, but I found myself rolling my eyes a bit and hitting the "I believe" button to get through this. It generally takes place over 3 or 4 days, and the guys miraculously fall madly in love in that time. Everything happened way too perfectly, but that is sometimes the beauty of reading the romance novels - to escape reality and have some feel good happiness. It wasn't my favorite, but it was a decent story.

Foam machine, the silence roared, JJ ->-> Jackson, Port Charlotte Amalie, loincloth
This is a fluffy addition to the Pride Cruise 2024 collection penned by various authors. It's a simple storyline with almost no angst, with a cute couple, many characters, and with many sex scenes without heat. This isn't my cup of tea.
