She’s here to make sure everyone has the time of their lives. He’s here to avoid anything resembling fun. Neither expected to fall overboard—into love.

Mia Torres loves her job as event coordinator on The Rendezvous, making every cruise a whirlwind of romance, adventure, and—let’s be honest—some incredibly questionable themed contests. But when a grumpy, off-limits firefighter crashes her latest event with a scowl that could sink the ship, she knows she’s got a new challenge. Operation: Make Jack Sullivan Have Fun.

Jack didn’t come on this singles’ cruise for romance—or, God forbid, fun. He lost a bet, and now he’s stuck in a floating, over-the-top dating experiment he wants no part of. That is, until Mia—the human embodiment of sunshine and chaos— makes it her mission to get him to participate. When a fire drill gone wrong earns Jack the title of Cruise Fire Safety Ambassador, he’s suddenly caught in a series of wildly inappropriate couple’s challenges, dance-offs, and one very public, very steamy ice bath “cool-down.”

Pretending to hate Mia was supposed to be easy. Accidentally falling for her? A disaster.

As their ship nears its final port, Jack is running out of time. He can go back to his real life, his real job, his real responsibilities—or finally admit that the last thing he wants to leave behind… is Mia.
