it was a cute read, but i didn’t get super attached to the characters, i didnt love the writing, and i wish she would have mentioned who watched her cat while she was on vacation.

It's such a good book! 😄
It was so funny and I really enjoyed reading it 😄 
The book was in every second so so good and there are so many plots.  These plots make just so much sense and then you totally understand, why a character was this way, in that situation and that way, in this situation. 
In this book there are some sad parts, but these parts are very short and normally I don't like sad parts in books, but somehow Angie Hockman managed to make me like even that moments.

(The following paragraph maybe has  a little spoiler... 😬)

I also really enjoyed their connection between Henley and Graeme and that their connection has some time to build up.


The whole book was just a feelgood book and I really really liked it 😄
I definitely will reread this book several times and want to read more of Angie Hockman's books.
Btw: I would be so so happy, if there would be a sequel to this book, that's maybe about Walsh, Christina or Tory 😅 I would buy it immediately

Henley's job working in marketing for a cruise line is her first priority. She chooses to work over spending time with friends and family and never makes time to relax. Henley is up for a promotion, but it's down to her and her enemy and coworker, Graeme. When boss forces Henley and Graeme to go on a cruise to get a better perspective for the company, Henley knows that she has to step up her work game if she wants to beat Graeme for the promotion. The only problem is that he's surprisingly charming. Henley finds herself having to choose between the job she's always put first and the possiblity of falling in love. 

What I expected to be a cute summer rom-com actually ended up being more about standing up for yourself and making a difference in the world. It started out as the rom-com but then evolved into a story about empowering women. Although Shipped wasn't what I expected, it was still a great read, and I loved the eclectic mix of characters. 

Disclaimer: Only one thing annoyed me and that was the spelling of the name Graham, spelled Graeme in the book. For the entire 321 page I read it as Grime in my mind and immediately corrected it to Graham every single time, which was a lot!
