A romantic couples’ DVD is usually thought of as filled with soft music and gentle lovemaking. Generally, that is true, but here a winning amalgam of tenderness and flat-out energetic sex is a rare successful exception to what one usually expects in this genre.

On-screen chemistry is all-important, and this one thrives in that respect. Sure, it is acting, but you just know something clicked when you see that obvious spark in the eyes of the performers.

Keeping the content fluid and consistent, the cast keeps things real—no need for fake big boobs or outrageous sex; instead, romance is the key as these slender ladies fulfill the guys’ desires. Even the final pops avoid being internal or in the mouth—all finishes are lovingly, almost apologetically, spread out over stomachs or backsides.

One great example is the interaction between Adria Rae and Tyler Nixon. The plot revolves around Nixon’s near slapstick efforts to surprise Rae with an engagement ring. It gets lost, falls down the drain, and more—but the moment when it finally finds a home on her finger, and everything leading up to it, really shows off their acting chops. From smiles, expressions, sideways glances and verbal interaction, this couple really shines.

A touch of humor is added without these two becoming a parody of themselves—which can be difficult, yet they do it well. Once the ring acceptance finally occurs, they eagerly cement the new relationship by indulging in very hot “please the partner” sex where their own needs come second—but are still dutifully attended to by their conscientious future better half.

Kudos to the director, Jacky St. James, for giving her actors the space to develop the plot just enough to let their talents be revealed as their prelude to sex runs a gauntlet of emotions and responses. Additionally, the camerawork and editing are top notch.

Couples will love this one—as will the everyday viewer.
