"to force to marry Dan." needs to be changed.

Perhaps:

".. to force Dan to marry her."
".. to force Dan into marriage." is also possible

Yes, Pat. Thanks for the suggestions.

I like this structure, too: "to force Dan into marriage."

Mary claimed she was pregnant ....

This would also be possible, and maybe the more likely way you'd hear it.
