A follow-up to last year's AVN award winner in the Alternative Adult Feature category, Love Scenes 2 comes out of the chute with guns a-blazing. The production values have been cranked up several notches over its predecessor, and women, in particular, should wet themselves over the selection of beefcake in this edition. Alan Miller who stars in the first boy meets girl featurette, "Mountain Cabin Fever" (there are five) is a stud out of the Conan school. Other guys (the video is eyed towards the women's audience) include Playgirl centerfolds and strippers.

My favorite vignette of the bunch is one titled "Two Pair in Paradise" which takes place on a boat in Kona, Hawaii and features one of the most erotic underwater interludes ever lensed.

Dealers and video fans should bear in mind that this is NOT a hardcore tape. It wasn't obvious to some people from our review of the first tape, and the company reports it had several negative letters from those who thought it was. However, the favorable responses outnumbered the unfavorable by 80 to 1. Goes to show you can't please everybody—even with an award winner.
