George Brent, Isa Miranda, and diamonds

A pilot (George Brent) is taken in by a beautiful woman (Isa Miranda) who is part of a diamond smuggling ring. She is caught and imprisoned, but the police are more interested in her partner (John Loder).

Consequently, she is released from prison on the condition that she works with the pilot to capture the main guy, who also happens to be her boyfriend. They have to pose as man and wife. Can she be trusted?

Pretty good, but it's a story that has been done before in one form or another.
