Ship Wrecked returns to the world of the Gods of the Gates cast and crew, this time focusing on the flirty duo of Maria and Peter. After a one-night stand leads to a very awkward casting room chemistry test, Maria and Peter must navigate how to build a working relationship, friendship, and possibly more. But with both actors bringing their own traumas to the table, they must decide whether to fight for or against each other.

I really enjoyed getting back in the world of the Gods of the Gates cast. It's such a cool concept to slowly meet more and more characters as you move through the series. We get to see all our favorite characters from the previous two novels from a new perspective which is very fun. I also liked the behind-the-scenes look that Ship Wrecked took. It provided a interesting view of how the two main characters' relationships with each other and the rest of the cast and crew developed over the years of filming together on their tiny Irish island. 

All in all, I have really enjoyed this series. It was such a fun read and I'm excited to see what Dade does next.
