            <![CDATA[ <p class=gnt_ar_b_p>A free Pacific cruise, including tropical cocktails and guided excursions? Yes, please. In “Shipped,” an outstanding comic romance by Green author Angie Hockman, the offer is less attractive for Henley Evans.</p>
<p class=gnt_ar_b_p>Henley is hoping for a promotion with Seaquest Adventures, the boutique cruise line where she works as marketing manager. The thorn in her side is Graeme Crawford-Collins, the social media manager who took credit for her best idea and is consistently delinquent posting promotions on Twitter and Instagram. While Henley is at Seaquest’s home office in Seattle, Graeme works remotely from Michigan. She’s never even met him.</p>
<p class=gnt_ar_b_p>Seaquest’s chief marketing officer tells Henley she’s being considered for the position of director of digital marketing. The bad news is that Graeme is also being considered. The worse news is that both are being sent on a cruise to the Galapagos Islands to “soak up the experience from the guests’ perspective” and return with proposals.</p>

<p class=gnt_ar_b_p>For another complication, Henley’s “flakier than a Hot Pocket” sister Walsh shows up unexpectedly with everything she owns, fresh out of a job and asking to go along on the cruise.</p>
<p class=gnt_ar_b_p>Before she even reaches the ship, Henley is fending off the attentions of a Russian chiropractor on the rebound, who is not dissuaded by her vomiting on him before they even get to the lifeboat drill. She is disconcerted to see that Graeme is much better looking than he appeared on video conferences, which was pretty fine to start with.</p>

<p class=gnt_ar_b_p>As the cruise sets off, Henley and Graeme go about their business of looking for marketing concepts while they ogle each other in their swimsuits. Graeme drops ideas as easily as he breathes, and Henley finds his attitude confounding. She expects him to be aggressive, but he’s encouraging and cordial, helping her when she has a panic attack while snorkeling.</p>
<p class=gnt_ar_b_p>Hockman offers dreamlike descriptions of colorful fish and playful baby sea lions. Henley’s sister Walsh, minimally clad, offers sunrise yoga on the beach. Henley struggles with her strong attraction to Graeme and its conflict with the first item on her to-do list, which is “Defeat Graeme Crawford-Collins.”</p>
