About the book
From the front and back covers: She sacrificed her brilliant society wedding to follow her heart. When her family’s misfortune forced Maris to say no to her fiancé’s lavish wedding plans, she finally realized his arrogance. But before she could sort out her feelings, she was his kidnapped prisoner on an ocean-bound honeymoon. And though he would stop at nothing to have his way, he didn’t bargain for Maris’s brave spirit, or the intervention of the handsome young man who had promised to protect her.
