    The honeymoon is fake, but the feelings are real.
 
Private investigator Callum's next case is sending him on a Caribbean cruise, but there's a catch: it's a honeymoon cruise, and he needs a wife. A former Navy Seal with a rough childhood, Callum isn't the easiest to get to know. He definitely isn't close enough to someone to ask them to play the role of fake spouse. Callum is usually a consummate professional, but when he meets a gorgeous single mother recommended by a colleague, he's off his game.
 
Widowed ex-cop Jessie moved back home to Atlanta after losing her husband. She has enough on her plate getting her son settled in a new school and starting over as a PI, but when Callum offers her the gig, she jumps at the chance to work with a successful peer and quickly finds herself caught up in their act.
 
As the case unfolds, they find themselves uncovering a web of lies more complicated than they expected... and falling for each other at the same time. Can they solve the case, or will they get caught up in the tropical atmosphere and start mixing business with pleasure?
