After a lifetime of being unlucky in love, JoJo Burton heads to her sister’s destination wedding aboard a luxury cruise ship determined to finally crack the code on romance. Armed with a little pop psychology and a lot of determination, she sets her sights on pursuing a long-lost crush who just so happens to be a newly divorced wedding guest.

There’s just one problem: to pull off her plan, she needs a wing man, and the only person available is Cooper Watts, her childhood best friend… and the one who broke her heart years ago when he disappeared without a word.

As the ship sails from port to port, JoJo and Cooper fall into an easy rhythm filled with fake flirting, shared cabins, slow dances, karaoke duets, and moments that feel a little too real. Between sun-drenched adventures and long-held secrets, the lines between friendship and something more begin to blur , leaving JoJo to wonder if the love she’s been chasing has been right beside her all along.

The Shippers is a warm, witty, and joyfully romantic story about second chances, healing old wounds, and finding your way back to the person who always felt like home.
