Praise For This Book


"Center employs the forced proximity trope to excellent effect in bringing these two back together, and the characters' sparkling banter effortlessly captures their long-standing intimacy. It's a joy to watch their friends-to-lovers journey unfold." -Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

"Catnip for romance fans. As Center reveals in an author's note at the beginning, "Spoiler: This book will end well." The destination may not be a surprise, but the journey is a delight. A fun, positively frothy friends-to-lovers romance." -Kirkus Reviews

"Center (The Rom-Commers) has a signature rom-com voice and offers plenty of banter that her fans adore. Readers who have already fallen in love with her previous works will find this a winner too." -Library Journal

"A charming escapist romp. Readers are hungry for fun rom-coms, and best-selling Center has become the go-to source." -Booklist

"Katherine Center is a pro at crafting sweetly cozy romances all but guaranteed to tug at your heartstrings, and her latest is no exception."-Marie Claire

"Another of my favorite rom-com writers, Katherine Center, is here to provide our beach bags with some tropes for summer. This one takes place on a cruise ship and I'm not mad about it."-Scary Mommy

"Sign up for a romance novel that combines a wedding, a long-lost best friend and a cruise."-Today.com"The wedding romance you need." -People.com
