'OH MY GOSH, THIS BOOK! UN-PUT-DOWN-ABLE! . . . It's been a long time since a book brought me such joy!' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reader review 'The perfect slice of vacation in book form' ROSIE DANAN For fans of Christina Lauren and Sally Thorne, escape with Shipped - the whipsmart and escapist romantic comedy that celebrates the power of second chances and the magic of new beginnings. 'A fun and flirty read - fuels the desire for romance, travel and escapism!' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reader review 'Witty, romantic and perfect!!' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ reader review *What would you do if your actual dream man turned out to be real? Preorder Angie Hockman's next fresh and funny rom-com, Dream On, now!* ............................................................... Two arch-rivals. One promotion. Can they resist falling for one another in paradise? Marketing manager Henley Evans barely has time for herself, let alone family, friends, or dating. But when she's shortlisted for her dream promotion, the sacrifices finally seem worth it. If only Graeme Crawford-Collins, the remote social media manager/bane of her existence, wasn't also up for the position. Although they've never met in person, their epic email battles are the stuff of office legend. The task: draft a proposal on how to boost bookings in the Galápagos. The catch? They have to go on a company cruise . . . together. But when they meet on the ship, Henley is shocked to discover that the real Graeme is nothing like she imagined - and the line between loathing and liking is thinner than a postcard. With her career dreams in sight and a growing attraction to the competition, Henley begins questioning her life choices. Because what's the point of working all the time if you never actually live? ...............................................................

“Life doesn't give you many of these opportunities. My advice? Seize it, mold it, and make it everything you want it to be.”
This is an enemies to lovers book, but not really. It's only the female protagonist who hates the male protagonist. Though, her reason for hating him seemed legit at first, once she got the reason why he did what he did, she still hated him and that was just stupid.
I didn't like Henley, she is judgmental and selfish. She never takes any blame but it is her who is always at fault.
I loved the setting for this book! It's set in a cruise ship in Galapagos. It's giving me tropical holiday vibes! I've always wanted to go on a cruise and this just have me more reason to!
The ending was too perfect but it's fine. Happy endings is what most people look for after all.
Henley is annoying and rude... also another negative is things like gender is a social construct. Okay, well your political views are showing author. But nail in coffin is heroine. If you don't like one of the leads in a romance, not much worth reading unless you're hate reading.
This enemies-to-lovers book follows Graham and Henley, who are both up for a promotion for the same job. Henley has never liked Graham due to him taking credit for one of her ideas at work. They are tasked with going on one of the company's cruises to the Galapagos to experience what the company has to offer personally.
This book was fun. The characters were interesting and the plot was fun. I wasn't really invested in the romance side of the novel. I liked Graham and Henley, but ultimately didn't care about whether they were end-game. I was mostly interested in the story line of Henley working for this promotion. It showcased how difficult it can be for women in the workplace, while also showing how strong women are to keep persevering. By the end, I felt satisfied with how everything turned out.
Since this is a romance and I wasn't really interested in the romance aspect, I gave it 3 stars. Not to say I didn't like their relationship or anything. They were both really supportive of each other, I just was more interested in Henley's relationship with all of her friends and her sister, and all of the effort she put in to her job. It was inspiring.
Ultimately, a fun, hope-filled read that is perfect for the summer or for a fun vacation read.
read it before. was soooooo basic and i felt like the characters and their relationship was so flat and had no depth. the reason why the heroine “hated” the hero was childish and the fact as a grown adult she put a reminder in her phone to delete him? YOURE GROWN! an extra star for the galapagos and wildlife preservation awarness/information
