Abandoning Ship (Valentine's Inc. Cruises #7) by Susan Hawke








Blurb

When the seas of love grow choppy, sometimes the best course is to abandon ship!

Two years ago, Ryan Abernathy was too tongue-tied, too introverted, and entirely too nervous to flirt with his hot but presumably straight new roommate. So when Ryan’s sister swooped in and scooped the hottie up for herself, he accepted his fate and kept his crush a secret.

Sawyer Muller never meant to find himself in a fake relationship with his sexy roommate's sister. And how was he supposed to know that Ryan would become his bestie and star in way too many of his dreams?

Things get complicated when Julia Abernathy strikes a deal with Sawyer to upgrade from fake boyfriend to groom, though they only need to stay married long enough for her to get her trust fund. They plan a fun cruise ship wedding with her entire family in tow. Sawyer figures it sounds like an adventure, and when they quietly divorce later, he’ll finally be free of all the fakery.

With Julia and Ryan’s homophobic, snooty family present, the pressure is turned up… especially when Sawyer finds himself jilted at the altar and drowning in a sea of blame. His only life preserver is the Abernathy sibling he can’t admit to wanting… Ryan.

This is an mm romantic comedy set in the Valentines Inc. world. Watch out for an awkward first kiss, a record-making group wedding, and sexy competitive shuffleboard. Before you board this ship, make sure you pack a fan because things are about to heat up on board this vessel! 


Review 
My Rating - 5 Stars!

Abandoning Ship is Susan Hawke's contribution to the multi-author Valentine's Inc. Cruises series. And it is fabulous!

If you enjoy fluffy, feel-good romances, you'll love this book. When Sawyer's fake relationship/wedding to Julia is cancelled, he's able to realize how strong the attraction between him and Julia's brother, Ryan is.

Sawyer and Ryan are roommates, great friends, but Sawyer's been keeping the fake part of his relationship from him. When they add romance to their relationship, it's wonderful. Sweet and adorable, I love this couple.

Again, this story is fluffy. If you're looking for an intense, angst ridden book, look somewhere else. If you're looking for a completely realistic tale, look somewhere else. Just suspend expectations and dive into this enchanting tale.

This tale includes some secrets, some surprises, and a homophobic father you will not win.

My favorite thing has to be the humor. Not only do some funny things happen, but the banter between the characters is light hearted and entertaining. Love it!

Abandoning Ship is amazing. No surprise with Susan Hawke as the author. Her writing is fantastic as always and the characters are enjoyable as usual. Be sure to check out this enjoyable gem.
