Cruise Control

I never went on the cruise expecting to meet the girl I would spend the rest of my life with. Of course Cassandra never expected to meet me. One thing was sure, neither of us ever expected what would happen when a less than honorable stage hypnotist performing on board used sweet, shy Cassandra in his act one night.

I knew from the moment I saw her that Cassandra was not your everyday girl, a shy and yet gorgeous young woman who avoided eye contact and maintained a distance from every other soul. She was on the cruise with family, hoping just to survive and get by with as little embarrassment as possible.

Her family wasn't helping, nor were the thousands of others on board, and when I witnessed the perverse antics of the great Hypno-Seas in his act that night, I knew that Cassandra needed someone to stand for her, to fight for her honor, and to protect her from the consequences of his hypnotic suggestions.

You won't believe what he had Cassandra, or more correctly the newly released Cassy doing all over the ship and with who, but you'll be happy to know that in the end everything turned out well. We never aimed to find each other on that cruise but in the end, we weren't the ones writing our own happy ending.
