Release Date: May 21, 2024
Genre: Christian Romcom
A snort-laughing, cruise ship romance takes readers into topsy-turvy waters
When a group of four quirky friends retire on a neverending round of cruises, their attire consists of more than floral shirts and gaudy skirts. Armed with walkie-talkies and battle plans, these relationship experts–who’ve dubbed themselves the “Shippers”–target hostess Lacey Anderson and director Jonathan King in their romantic schemes. But the young couple refuses to cooperate. They’ve been on the “love boat” together before, and it went down in flames.
Boss matchmaker Emily Windsor has orchestrated multiple romantic successes, and these two upstarts certainly won’t get the best of her. The chemistry between Lacey and Jonathan is obvious, but the couple rebuffs every outlandish plot and “coincidental” meeting, forcing the matchmakers to chart a new course to true love–all while inadvertently thwarting drug smugglers threatening to ruin their floating home on the ocean.
This laugh-out-loud rom-com features loveable characters, over-the-top situations reminiscent of 1950s sitcoms, and a dash of mystery. The toe-curling romance will push the reader overboard and all in with Shannon Dunlap’s new series.
Excerpt
“Is that the old lady you told me about?” Collins smacked his gum as he rested his girth against the metal railing.
Jon surveyed the flocks of sun- drenched tourists. No one was close enough to hear them. “Emily Windsor. And she’s got three friends who are equally curious. I’m not sure who was grilling whom back there. Lace . . . someone I know, called them the Shippers. She said they live on board year- round and amuse themselves by matchmaking. Which might explain why they asked so many questions. I’ll keep an eye on them, but I’m pretty sure it’s a dead end.”
“Do we dock in Cozumel tomorrow?”
“Yes. Because it’s festival time, we bypassed our usual stop in Progreso and are spending two days in the Cozumel port as opposed to the normal one and done.”
Collins spit his gum over the side of the ship and drew a fresh piece from his pocket. “Prime time to sneak a stash aboard.” He unwrapped the stick and shoved it in his mouth. “Are the grandmas planning to get off?”
“They said something about visiting a salon. But I don’t—”
“Got it.” Collins raised both hands. “You don’t think it’s them. But go with me on this. I’ll trail the old biddies a while, mark their names off the suspect list, and then we have fewer people to track. Make sense?”
Jon shrugged.
