Best Marriage Of Convenience Books
It starts as a transaction. Two people agree to marry for reasons that have nothing to do with love: money, protection, reputation, political alliance. They set rules. They keep their distance. And then, gradually, the rules stop holding.
Marriage of convenience works because forced proximity is built in. Two people sharing a life while pretending not to feel anything creates an unbearable slow burn. Every accidental touch, every moment of unexpected kindness, every rule broken just a little, compounds until the emotional dam gives way. Readers love the inevitability of it.
