Decked

AllyWhat could be more lucky than having a successful brother who includes you on his luxury charter-yacht vacation in the Mediterranean? Sun, sea breeze, cute deckhands, and beach reads seems like the perfect getaway from my aimless life. Except for one thing: the tacit understanding here is that I'll be working for my brother's gaming company. No thanks! I'm only 19 once, and when am I ever coming back to Italy? I intend to make the most of it while I'm here, even if the captain insists that my flighty ass needs a grumpy, tattooed deckhand to chaperone me on a shopping excursion. This guy had better batten down the hatches, because we're about to have some fun with my trust fund.QuintI didn't sign up to work on the deck of The Carpe Diem only to spend time following a 19-year-old rich kid around Naples. But I need to stop punching coworkers in the face if I don't want to end up on babysitting duty. However, spending the day with Ally soon proves to be more than what anyone bargained for. Figuring out that she's perfect for me doesn't take long. There's just one problem: she's a guest, and I'm not allowed to touch her. Not in the way I want to. I'll have to wait until her charter is over. Waiting...that's the wisest course of action for two impulsive people, right?Naughty Yachties is a new series of short romance stories loosely inspired by Below Deck. If you love romance tropes, obsessed heroes, plucky heroines, high heat, and happily ever afters, then welcome aboard!
