This isn't fiction, it's a real-life tale that truly shows Men Are From Mars and Women Are From Venus. I really enjoyed reading Kingsland's version as it also explains his background and what he was looking for on the adventure, which was really different than what she was looking for on the island.
Read the book then see if you can download the movie (British, 1987). I'll bet you will want to at least take an island vacation, but perhaps not on deserted island.
