Peter and Maria meet as a one night stand, and the next day they’re cast on the same tv show. Oops.
A solid 3.5, rounded up. A great addition to Dade’s series. There’s a time jump that felt like an easy out. That’s the reason for the lower star rating. Loved seeing the characters from the other two books in this story.

Setting and plot were fun, I enjoyed the characters. I also enjoyed how the author captured the influence of fanfiction and group dynamics. The third act breakup because Maria and Peter couldn’t articulate their thoughts/feelings was kind of annoying and I wasn’t a fan of them coming to the realization and how it seemed to take up pages. Overall, decent fun book.

Ugh, I kept hoping it would get good, but it just felt consistently flat throughout.
The plot felt disjointed, and at times, confusing as hell. Also, the narrator Kelsey Navarro's tone grated on my nerves, especially when she was trying to speak with a Swedish accent.
I'm not sure if it's the authors writing style, or how it translates as an audiobook, but some of it just made zero sense and broke my concentration.
In summary; it felt more like a script was being read out, as opposed to a story.

I wanted to like this story, but I found it to be just meh. In the other stories of the series, the characters had more depth and inner dialogue. There were back stories and dimension to each character. In Ship Wrecked, I found the characters main purpose is to have sex with each other and to get through a very long movie journey to be together. I just couldn't wait to finish it.
