Description

"This witty, heartfelt romance is an absolute treat for readers."
--Elly Gilbert, coauthor of Under the Blue Skies

Cheeky septuagenarian matchmakers, the "Shippers" are on a mission to secure a dreamy Mr. Right for Abby O'Brien, a sunny, optimistic childcare worker for Monarch Cruises. She loves her job looking after the children of vacationing parents, but harbors one unfulfilled desire: to be a wife and a mother.

With his shy five-year-old daughter in tow, divorced elitist lawyer Spencer Randolph Masterson has anything but romance in mind. His goal on the MS Buckingham is to persuade his mother, Daisy, to leave her ridiculous cruise ship lifestyle and return to New Orleans. But Daisy isn't interested in life on land. Besides, she and her matchmaking posse have a marriage to arrange.

When a secret from Daisy's past surfaces and threats of blackmail start flying, the Shippers must protect their own while attempting to convince Spencer's scarred heart to weigh anchor and boldly set sail for a future with Abby.

"Inspirational romance readers will relish every cozy moment they spend with the Shippers!"
--Bethany Turner, author of Cole and Laila Are Just Friends

Hearts Aweigh is a delightful vacation in book form.--Angela Ruth Strong, author of the Love Off Script series (12/2/2024 12:00:00 AM)
Hearts Aweigh is an absolutely adorable and engaging story that kept me giggling throughout. I was moved by the threads of family and reconnection. The characters sparkle with relatable charm and quirkiness. And what fun it was to mingle with the Shippers and their matchmaking antics. Readers will be enthralled by every part of this delightfully heartwarming read.--Jenny Erlingsson, author of Her Part to Play (12/2/2024 12:00:00 AM)
I'll follow Shannon Sue Dunlap and her fun, faith-filled matchmakers of a certain age anywhere. Inspirational romance readers will relish every cozy moment they spend with the Shippers!--Bethany Turner, author of Cole and Laila Are Just Friends (12/2/2024 12:00:00 AM)
The Shippers are up to their old tricks again, and I'm here for it! As much as I enjoyed Love Overboard, I think Hearts Aweigh might be even better. When one of Monarch Cruises' childcare specialists, Abby, recruits the Shippers to work their matchmaking magic, she opens the door to their hilarious hijinks, and they don't disappoint. The sparks fly between Abby and Spencer from their first meeting, and the mystery of Daisy's blackmailer adds just the right amount of good-natured suspense. This witty, heartfelt romance is an absolute treat for readers. I can't wait to see what Shannon Sue Dunlap comes up with next!--Elly Gilbert, coauthor of Under the Blue Skies (12/2/2024 12:00:00 AM)
With a mischievous group of matchmakers, a mysterious blackmailer, and a toe-curling romance, Hearts Aweigh is a delightful read from the first page to the last. Dunlap has woven an intriguing tale of forgiveness and second chances, sprinkled with laughter. A story to savor!--Tara Johnson, author of To Speak His Name (12/2/2024 12:00:00 AM)
