Life isn't all smooth sailing for Elizabeth "Eli" Parker when a tropical storm traps her in the Grand Caymans with a stolen diamond ring in her bra. What she needs is a plan. But when Jason Mallone --- a walking Neanderthal in ragged cutoffs and purple flip-flops --- charges to her rescue, Elizabeth gets more than she bargained for because her only way off the island is on a marriage therapy cruise masquerading as the security consultant's unhappy wife!

Not one to be anchored down by permanent relationships, Jason Mallone is determined to avoid getting too close to the feisty librarian. If it's one thing he's learned, it's that marriage and his job don't mix --- especially when his pretend wife is driving him nuts! Hell, even the ship's primal scream therapy is starting to look good.

When trouble begins to stalk them from port to port, will Jason cast Elizabeth to the sharks to save his career, or will this unlikely pair discover that the safe harbor of their love can weather any storm?
