Bookroo's summary

Mallory embarks on a cruise with her family and friends, but her excitement sinks when her best friends' parents announce their marriage. Struggling with feelings of exclusion, Mallory must navigate her emotions and find a way to celebrate her friends' joy without feeling like a third wheel. Will she manage to balance her own happiness with theirs, or will the trip leave her adrift in a sea of loneliness?
