Cruising

Edinburgh 2026

When a dancer and a climate activist meet over margaritas on a Mediterranean cruise, their sizzling attraction seems like the perfect holiday fling. Until the pair realise they share more than just chemistry: both are in a relationship with the same person. As potential romance explodes into fierce rivalry, the duo launch a competitive campaign of eco-sabotage against the mega-polluting ship. With the heat rising, can their connection and desire for a better world survive these dangerous waters? This queer romcom by Katrina Bennett is a subversive exploration of protest and passion.
