Lovette and Rick are a married couple who celebrate their one year anniversary
by having sex.  Rick's the unfaithful one, having an affair with Stephanie,
while Lovette's the innocent and trusting soul who'd do anything for her man
(but little does she know what's really going on).  Her good friend Aries
knows what kind of a scumbag Rick really is and is surprised their marriage
has lasted a whole year (if she's a good friend of Lovette's, why didn't she
tell her about her cheating hubby?).  Rick uses the usual "gotta go in to
work" excuse to leave the house and have his fling but Lovette eventually
catches on when she calls up Julie whose boyfriend/hubby Jack Hammer works
with Rick.  Julie says Jack's home for the week because of some renovation
thing at the office.  This causes Lovette to write a "Dear John" letter.  In
it, she mentions she's going to do something she thought she'd never do.  When
Rick finds the note, he gets worried over that part and thinks she's going to
commit suicide.  But (in one of the lamest set-ups ever) what really happens
is Lovette tries out her first lesbian encounter with friend Frankie Layne.
The end.

SCENES:

Lovette, Rick.  Bedroom.  Wearing a white-laced outfit (that sort of looks
like a swimsuit), matching white-laced nylons, and white heels, petite and
surgically enhanced Lovette lays back as Rick laps away at her clit.  They get
into a 69 where she sucks his balls and uses a lot of spit while giving him
head.  They lay down on their sides to do a spoon poke, then get into a doggy
and missionary.  Rick pulls out and climbs up to Lovette's face to cum.  She
gets some on her chin but from the angle the camera's in (plus the grainy
picture quality) it's hard to tell if she received a few loads in her mouth or
if it oozed down the other side of her face that we can't see.  

Aries, Dick.  Couch.  Redheaded newcomer Aries is a pretty cute girl who looks
to be in her late teens (and face-wise, sort of resembles Tara Monroe).  She's
slim, pale skinned and has small natural breasts (Aries, if you ever see Jim
South approaching you.. run as fast as you can in the opposite direction!)
First she rolls down her little outfit and pops her boobs out for Dick to suck
on.  Then he goes down to lick her clit while fingering her pussy.  When she
gives him head, Aries does it sensually and Dick reaches behind her to finger
her some more.  While in missionary, Aries raises her legs up and puts her
feet over Dick's shoulders to reveal two tattoos; one on her ankle and another
circling her ankle like a bracelet (I can't tell what they are, though).  She
does a pretty nice reverse cowgirl as she reaches backwards to place her hands
on Dick's chest as she bounces up and down (she also has very little pubic
hair but quite a few blemishes around her ass).  Their final poke is doggy
style then Dick pops a mild one on her face (on her chin and near her nose).

Julie, Jack.  Couch.  Platinum blonde Julie starts off by having her silicon
sacks sucked on by her single-braided and heavily tattooed partner.  She
returns the favour with a blowjob that includes ball sucking and shaft
tonguing.  Then she hovers over his dick and places it between her plastic
melons, bobbing up and down slowly.  A clit lick and pussy fingering session
follows before Jack hammers into her missionary style.  Starts off ho-hum but
then he brings Miss Rage to a mini climax.  Next up, reverse cowgirl followed
by doggy.  Later she lays her head down on the ground as her butt's up on the
couch and Jack stands above and crouches down slightly to plow into her pussy,
bringing her to another mini climax.  They go back to mish for a few moments
with a mild facial that has three squirts practically flying over her face.

Stephanie, Rick.  Couch.  Steph unbuttons Rick's shirt, getting him more
comfortable, then goes for his pants and whips out his dick.  She goes down on
him for a lengthy blowjob, which he seemingly likes to receive.  No pussy
eating for her, she just gets up and sits on his cock in the reverse cowgirl
position.  She keeps her blue shirt on the entire time.. and with good reason.
When she rolls it up to expose her breasts, you'll notice that not only did
she have her already implanted boobs pumped up some more, there are very
hideous looking stretch marks to boot!  Why did she get more surgery??  Sigh.
Anyhow, she also has a pink skirt kept rolled around her waist (but I don't
notice anything funny about her genital area she may have wanted to keep
hidden).  A spoon follows, then doggy (where she fingers her ass, even though
he doesn't fuck her anally).  There's a tattoo above her butt, but I can't
make it out (hmm.. maybe THAT'S what she wanted to hide with the skirt!).
Lastly, they do a missionary as DuValle cups her breasts and eventually
reaches down to finger her ass some more.  Rick pulls out and goes up to her
face to cum (cheek and chin mostly).  This bout's just 'ok' (if only the
cameraman knew what he was doing half the time) and a change of pace for Steph
without her usual partner (and real life lover) Dick Nasty.  I find she's
looking better and better face-wise, but her chest just looks worse than ever.

Lovette, Frankie.  Outdoors.  They look to be in a forest or something.  Both
girls are wearing bikinis and leis (is this where the 'paradise' part of the
title comes into play?).  Cute as a button Frankie is a petite and small
chested dirty blonde wearing an exotic flower in her hair.  Lovette starts
eating her out.  A dildo is gradually introduced and she rams it up Frankie
quickly.  They both switch places and now Frankie gets a chance to eat out her
friend.  When she uses the same dildo inside her partner, Frankie reaches up
and grabs Lovette's right breast, squeezing it a little (and as for Lovette's
left breast.. it looks a little dented underneath; but not really a stretch
mark).  Miss Layne eats her out again briefly before they kiss and the
cameraman cuts away from the action to show us some lovely trees before.. fade
out.

FINAL COMMENTS: The sex is ok to hot (in spots) but the bigger problem lies
within the crew.  First of all, a really cheap video camera was used.  Second
of all (this accounts for most of the blame), we get a lot of still shots - as
if the camera was placed on a tripod and left there to film - that makes the
sex action seem like by-the-numbers instead of up and down panning that would
have made everything flow along more gently.  Third of all, minor looping.  To
top that off (unless it was just my particular copy) the image kept jumping
every so often.  Not to the point of complete irritation, but still bothersome
enough after a while.  Quite a lousy production, "Trouble In Paradise" spells
trouble for the adult industry because if they keep making more and more tapes
of this caliber there will be legions of unhappy campers (and wankers) faster
than you can cop a feel.  At least 'raincoaters' will be 'suited up' when crap
like this comes raining down on their parade.
