Ship of Dreams US DE by Brenda Hiatt (Harlequin author).
Quote:
Falsely accused of murder, Della Gilliland flees wild, wicked, post-Gold Rush San Francisco aboard an outbound steamer. Stuffy New York businessman Kent Bradford is shocked when a lovely redhead he's never met suddenly introduces herself as his wife to an important business contact. Fearing a scene, he plays along . . . for the moment. But moments turn into weeks and growing attraction becomes something more. Then, only days out from New York, their ship encounters a hurricane that threatens not only their budding love, but their very lives.
This romantic historical novel was originally published by HarperCollins. Often likened to "Titanic," Ship of Dreams is set amid the aftermath of the California Gold Rush and the real events of the final, ill-fated voyage of the SS Central America in 1857. Relive the experiences of her passengers, as told through the eyes of a fictitious couple who find
love and adventure on the high seas.

*Originally published as Dangerous Attractions by Colleen Easton (pseudonym of Gwyneth Atlee and Colleen Thompson)
After surviving a shipwreck off the coast of the Florida Keys, Genna Whitworth, a Boston heiress fleeing from scandal in her hometown, gets the surprise of her life when she discovers that her childhood friend, Eli Blaylock is alive and well. Eighteen years before, she thought Blaylock had been killed in the same Seminole Indian attack that had, tragically, taken the life of her father. Now a prominent sea captain, Blaylock helps rescue Genna from the sinking ship - and although he is engaged to be married, both find it increasingly difficult to overlook their growing, and dangerous attraction that is blossoming in the intense, tropical heat.
