Daniel

A doctor agrees to keep the most notorious heiress in America out of trouble for five days at sea. By the last night he has married her.

Every tabloid calls Kate Sparrow a monster. Her father built that story to cover his own crimes, and her sister helped him sell it. Now Kate boards a wedding cruise to Grand Cayman with one goal. Open her dead mother's safe deposit box, hand the FBI what it holds, and buy back her own name. She has no allies, no plan past the bank, and a secret at twenty-seven she has never told a soul.

Doctor Daniel Collins boards the same ship owing his young cousin a favor. Keep the bride's sister quiet and out of the way. Then Kate kisses him to escape a photographer, somebody breaks into her hotel room and leaves a warning she cannot ignore, her sister cancels her cabin, and the ship sells out.

One cabin. Five days. A real diamond Daniel buys so the story holds.

Kate keeps the lie, keeps the ring, and keeps the truth about her father to herself. By the time she asks Daniel to marry her before the ship docks, neither of them is pretending. The captain signs the certificate in international waters with three minutes to spare. Then somebody takes a shot at her on the pier, and the Marine Corps doctor who swore to protect her has to prove it with his hands.

Tropes: fake engagement that becomes a real marriage, marriage of convenience, doctor hero, forced proximity in one cabin, only one bed, virgin heroine, protector hero, wrongly accused heiress, sister as villain, cruise ship setting.

Content note: on-page violence including a kidnapping, a shooting, an attempted strangling, and the death of a dog.
