The Shippers

Author: Katherine Center

Format: Physical Hardcopy

'The wedding romance you need' People She thought she'd charted her course ... until love came on board. After a whole lifetime of being bad at love, JoJo Burton decides to solve her commitment issues once and for all at her sister's destination wedding on a cruise ship.

Her longtime crush and first ever kiss (who just happens to be newly-divorced) will be on board, and she decides to woo him during the cruise for some long-delayed closure. Only problem is, her sister's a little busy being a bride at the moment-so JoJo ropes in her childhood bestie, Cooper, to be her wing man.

Cooper: who RSVPed no, but then showed up, anyway. Cooper: who left town without a word four years earlier and moved to London.

Cooper: who was, if she's honest, the worst heartbreak of JoJo's life. It's bliss for her to see him again, and it's agony, too - and the more time they spend together, the more she obsesses over questions she can't bring herself to ask.

Shipboard antics ensue in this witty, heart-tugging, childhood-friends-to-lovers romance - as JoJo and Cooper fake flirt, slow dance, share a cabin, sing duets, treat sunburns, get jealous, and rescue each other over and over again...
