Hands up if you are a fan of the #MarriageOfConvenience trope? πŸ™‹πŸΎβ€β™€οΈThere are always good #RomanceNovel reasons why the couple MUST marry - a clause in a will; to get a Green Card; to save something of importance - and it is sooo delicious when a couple work together to achieve the best outcome! Even more yummy if the MCs start as enemies/rivals...

Recs:

"Terms & Conditions" by Lauren Asher
"Border CTRL + ESC" by Ivy L James
"In A Jam" by Kate Canterbary

@Diva007 @romancelandia @romancebooks definitely have a soft spot for this trope as well... even if it can feel ridiculous sometimes.

With You Forever by Chloe Liese
Bayou Beauty by Lexi Blake
Devil in Winter by Lisa Kleypas

@lenoreo I loved the Chloe Liese one too! I'll add the other two to my TBR list. Thank you for the recs!

@Diva007 @romancelandia @romancebooks Mine "marry" because one is a secret agent who has a brain fart on a mission and blurts out the first name that pops into his head, his boyfriend's.

Through various events they have to appear together and the BF is no good at secret identities.

It takes his handler to point out the problem. "Andrews and Andrews? I'm not saying it's never happened but..."

"Yeah I guess it's kind of worse if we're cousins, right?"

@Diva007 @romancelandia @romancebooks Links in profile, 3 books are out already! 4 on the way, 5 less concrete but I hop there sometimes for fun.

It's breezy chatty escapism that has been on a low burner for a long, long time.
