Ship Happens: A Dark Rom-Com (The Slaycation Series Book 3)
Love hurts, but I like the pain
Maverick
The second I board the Bruise Cruise, I'm ready to indulge-top-shelf liquor, five-star meals, and maybe a little pain to round out the night.
What I don't expect? Falling for the one woman guaranteed to ruin everything.
A federal agent.
She's here to sink us, and I'm stuck sharing a suite-and a bed-with the enemy.
Frankie
Get in. Take down Jim and his crew. Get out. That's the mission.
But nothing about the Bruise Cruise goes according to plan.
Especially not Maverick-handsome, odd, aggravating . . . and weirdly charming.
Which is a problem.
And then he tells me his secrets, leaving me with two options: jump ship or go down with him.
Ship Happens is book three in the dark romantic comedy series rocking the TikTok charts-and this time, all aboard means no one is safe. Expect savage banter, killer humor, and a romance that's anything but smooth sailing.
Pack your bags, grab your life vest, and book your ticket-Ship Happens is your next slaycation!

"For the next week, I’m no longer Frankie Grant the Ghost. I’m a ser!al k!ller." 🔪Our federal agent FMC has to fit in with the world's most notorious ser!al k!llers for a week long cruise.🚢 Can she do it?
Well, she's already introduced herself as The Fisherman, who's de@d as a doornail and everybody knows it so...
Enter Maverick. Our MMC is her host and roomie for the week and has been assigned to Frankie to give her cover and guide her through events and basically (struggle to) give her the white glove treatment for the duration and then send her (ALIVE) back home. After all, nobody wants a secret fed to d!e on their watch 🧐
There is mystery and spice, banter all around with every character, and a book that turns out to be as heartwarming as it is funny.
When I say spice, I mean sweet, bl00dy, k!nky s3x. This is 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶5/ 5 chilies on the spicy scale. If you've ever thought 'I wonder what bl00d as lube would be like?' Ship Happens delivers that answer and more! Definite splash warning on this one 💦
Frankie and Maverick get their HEA with a super satisfying epilogue that has us running to our TBRs and waiting with bated breath for Slaughter Park!
🔊Lauren is the audiobook queen and everything she touches turns into audiobook gold, I have absolute faith that this book will be the same. This will make the BEST duet full cast audiobook ever. I can't wait to listen to it🔊
