The Paper Marriage
By Flora Kidd
Brooke's hasty marriage to Owen Meredith was hardly an ideal or romantic one - but that hadn't been the intention in the first place. She was smarting from an unsatisfactory love affair; she was also worried to death about her father, missing and probably dead in the jungle of Venezuela. He needed a companion for his motherless daughter whom he was taking back to - of all places - Venezuela. So what more convenient for both of them than to marry, on paper only, thus helping to solve both their problems ? But complications soon began to pile up, when Brooke found herself falling in love with her disturbingly attractive husband - just at the time when she also learned about the real love of his life - the beautiful Stella Cordoba, who was now, just too late, free to marry him herself. . . .
