Emily Evans is the new chief steward on the “Aphrodite”, a mega-yacht belonging to the Bachman family, aka America’s Mafia Royalty. After being told ‘It’s me, not you’ from the ex she thought would bring wedding bells, she needed an escape. Captain Luca, captain of the Aphrodite, is a workaholic who stays tied to the sea. Ridiculous stories spread about his past, as he never shares his private life. No one even knows if he’s a member of the Brotherhood or just an employee of the Bachmans. So when Emily finds herself called up to the Captain because she broke his rules it becomes apparent she has only two choices. Pack her bags and leave immediately or take the punishment Captain Luca is set to deliver and if you know anything about the Bachmans, you now realize Emily is about to receive her first spanking. This was such an unexpected surprise for me. I hadn’t thought to have Luca’s story but it was such a great read that included twists and turns along with the famous Bachman discipline. Thank you so much for this one!
This book is part of the Mafia Billionaire Romance series which continues the story of the Bachman family. The story focuses on the romance between Captain Lucas, who is responsible for the Bachman family yacht named Aphrodite, and Emily Evans, who takes a job as the chief steward after a failed romance. I recommend this read which continues the Bachman family series with its strong and independent characters and a plot with dominance, unexpected twists, and sizzling chemistry.

Emily finds a new love!
by sewsummore
After being dumped by her longtime boyfriend. Emily leaves town for a new job as Head Steward aboard the luxury “Aphrodite.” It was not long before the Captain was informed of her habit of stalking her ex on social media. Breaking the rules about mobile phones was not the only mistake. Emily added to it by lying about the reason. She should have been dismissed instantly. However, the Captain decided to give her the chance to redeem herself with a warning and a bare bottom spanking to remind her of what she had done wrong. Emily was both embarrassed and aroused by her punishment and the aftercare her Captain provided. I enjoyed reading this book and watching the relationship between Emily and her Captain progress. Luka had never expected to fall in love but, Emily was making him forget all his own rules.

Another fantastic standalone book in this series. It comes with wonderful characters and situations in this exciting plot.

Firstly, yes this is part of a series. No, you don’t have to have read the others to understand what’s going on. That’s what I love, each book can be read standalone. Secondly, I’m still loving this series. All of the characters are wonderful & are crafted so the reader actually feels like they know them. This book takes place (mostly) on the Bachman yacht, Aphrodite with Luca and Emily. Let me say that in the real world, Luca’s behaviour would be seriously against all of the workplace acceptable regulations, but in a story it is HOT. Add in that I love a strong guy who knows what (& who) he wants and this book just did it for me. I loved the dynamic between Luca & Emily with the push/pull from each side.

—>>> Emily Evans caught Captain Luca’s appreciative eye even before boarding the Aphrodite, and she came highly recommended for the position of Chief Stew on his ship. However, when a fellow shipmate points out that she was breaking one of his firm rules, he unearths what appears to be her unhealthy obsession for her ex, and the attraction was already heated enough that he offers himself to help her forget said ex. But when he seems to be heading quickly towards breaking one of his own rules to be with her, the one where he promised himself he would never fall in love again, and while she seems to be enjoying her time with him, it will be over when they are done their season of chartering. Intriguing glimpse into the alluring world of hot and dominant Bachman males and their Beauties.

This is such a great series. This is the story of Captain Luca of the yacht the Aphrodites. Luca finds himself falling for Emily the Chief Stew which she takes very seriously. Emily gets caught breaking a rule on the yacht and gets reprimanded bye Bachman way. Luca will show Emily the meaning of loved even if she has to take a few trips over his lap. Love this series. Can’t wait for another book to come out. I received an ARC of this book for an honest review.
The spanking men of the Bachman family are always a treat. This is Captain Luca’s story. Luca is yacht captain for the family. When Emily comes on board as Chief Stew, he is taken with the beautiful young woman. The thought of her supple body draped over his strong thighs is tantalizing. She just wants to do a perfect job and forget her past. She never dreams her bottom will pay the price for her preoccupation with the past.

New from Shanna Handel!
I love this next book in the Bachman series. You don’t need to have read the other books, but it helps to put everything in context. Luca is the captain of the luxury yacht the Bachman family owns. Emily is the new Chief steward. She has left her life to get away from her ex who dumped her for another woman. There is a strong attraction between Luca and Emily, even though he is her boss. They fight the attraction, but there is a HEA in the end. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Consequences is the sixth book set within the Bachman Mafia world, but could be read as a stand alone. Emily is a new hire on the Aphrodite, the luxury ship for the Bachman’s. But she’s running from a disastrous breakup and she quickly breaks the rules. Instead of getting fired, Captain Luca proposes new consequences for her actions. While they slowly draw closer to each other, when her ex shows up again, who will Emily pick?
This series is one of those worlds that authors create that you just can’t help but wish were real. I have loved every moment I spent in this series, and reading through Consequences was no exception! Emily and Luca stole my attention and heart, and I absolutely loved their connection! Emily completely fascinated me. She had moments of being so dang sweet, and then other moments of being wild, naughty, and a little bit reckless. Luca was so steady, almost robotic with his workaholic tendencies, and I loved how Emily slowly softened him and drove him just a little bit crazy! I think they brought out the best in each other and helped one another become a better version of themselves. I liked the drama in this book, but honestly, this book focused mostly on their steamy relationship and the building of their love! I really enjoyed Emily and Luca and hope to see them a little in a future book! I already can’t wait for more from this series!
I liked how Luca ducked out of the party to go back to Emily!! Lol. He’s stuck on that honey pot already!! I was elated when Emily and her ex reunited, and she told him about her feelings. Karma karma! Yes! The misunderstanding between Emily and Luca lead to a great reunion and feelings expressed. Check it out. A great spin off of the original Baughmans, and I can’t wait for more!!
I couldn’t put this story down. I loved every minute of it. I loved seeing Captain Luca get his story. I love this series by Shanna Handel. I highly recommend this book and this series.
Emily is needing a change of scenery after her breakup. She goes back to working on a yacht. She is able to score the chief stew position working for the Bachmans. Captain Luca has always vowed not to fall in love. But things change when he sees Emily. Will he help her get over her heartache?
I received an ARC in exchange for a honest review.
Captain Luca and Emily are great together!! Even though she doesn’t know about the Bachman way she sure does submit very easily. She may not like it at first but quickly comes to realize that it helps her. Great book!!
Another Bachman and a beautiful ship named Aphrodite…what could be better?!?!?
Emily finds herself being dumped by her cheating boyfriend, so off she goes to work on the Bachman yacht. Luca is the Captain of Aphrodite and has one specific rule: never fall in love.
Once again I couldn’t put this book down until I saw another happily ever after…and with the Bachman’s, that’s what you get! I truly wish this series never ends.
This book seemed to me like it was shorter then the first few Bachman books. It could be that I just devoured the book which made it seem shorter.
I liked Emily because she was so professional in the way she performed her job, and she was nice. So I was surprised at her social media obsession. Enter Captain Luca. Helping Emily get over her obsession became his number one priority. He was also nice. Based on his willingness to help out Jules proved he was a decent man.
This was a good addition to the Bachman series. This one didn’t spend much time on land in the Village or at the Parish on the island. It mostly occurred at sea on the Aphrodite. I wish there had been more story including Emily’s interactions with the Beauties, and exactly what Mica’s job would have been had he moved to the Village. It was OK, but I needed more.
