celebrity drama marriage-of-convenience marriageproposal romance

A new law says: Get married by thirty-or lose your rights.

He's a superstar with a perfect smile-and a past he refuses to talk about.
She's a foreigner just trying to survive a city that never slows down.

Neither of them wanted love.
Neither of them expected to get married-before ever meeting.

Now they're stuck in a villa full of other married bandmates and their drama, dodging fan rumors, bitter in-laws, and a marriage contract neither of them read.

But the problem with fake marriages?

A romantic burnout x A jaded romantic columnist ➴ Ajna had long since set love aside; life made no room for it, and eventually, neither did he. Marriage. Family. Kids. All the rest of it. But now, he needed it. Not love, just a marriage. Aala, whose life is a perfect case study in how things fall apart, makes her living writing about grand romances for Synthesis. But the brand she's built stands on beliefs she no longer holds. So when they're signed into the ultimate merger: an arranged marriage, they agree to make the best of it. Ajna gets the company, and Aala gets a chance to put everything that had derailed back on track. One pretence: a marriage. One rule: keep the accursed thing - love - out of the window.

Broken (The Marriage Contract) by tashiboo12345

You want the secret to happiness? Keep your heart out of the equation. That's what my father drilled into us James boys after my mom passed, and I've lived by it ever since. Love complicates everything. Business? Clean. Contracts? Binding. Feelings? Useless. So when Dad drops a bomb over Sunday brunch and asks me for a "favor," I expect something simple. Pick up dry cleaning? Fine. But no-he wants me married. Settled down. Producing heirs to carry on the James legacy. And to top it off, he's already chosen my bride. Sounds insane, right? But here's the thing-I'm tired. Tired of dating, tired of shallow connections, tired of women who want the James fortune more than they want me. Marriage, at least, is just a contract. And contracts? Those, I can handle. Then comes Melanie Edison. A quick-witted, gorgeous veterinary nurse with curves that test my self-control and a "no sex before marriage" rule that borders on torture. Somehow, not dating her is the most fun I've ever had. But what starts as a cold business arrangement doesn't stay that way. Somewhere between the bickering, the stolen glances, and the lines we swore not to cross, I end up breaking the one rule I swore I'd never break. And once that rule is shattered, so am I. Now I don't know how to fix us-or if I even can. All I know is going back to who I was before Melanie isn't an option anymore. Because she isn't just my contract. She's everything.

Mafia's fiancée by michelleqvarnstrom

One evening, you're invited by your uncle to an engagement dinner for a mafia boss, but a handsome stranger pulls you on stage and reveals that his new fiancée is you. The crime lord isn't actually interested in marriage, he just wants a contractual arrangement to secure his place as the family head. A fake engagement to the mafia boss may be the only thing that can keep you safe. But the longer you spend together, the more both of your feelings change. Forced to move in and play the role of fiancée, can you both keep up the ruse until you say, "I do?" Will the rules be broken, if so, who breaks them first?

Tangled Vows by Eloisee_ee

He needed a wife to claim his legacy... She needed a way out. Neither expected to fall in love. Blake Hawkins is a man who built walls instead of relationships. Ruthless in business, guarded in life, he's spent years burying the wreckage of his past beneath ambition and control. So when a billion-dollar inheritance hinges on a wedding ring, he proposes the one thing he swore he never would-marriage. To his best friend. Sophia Carter has lost more than most: her peace, her trust, her sense of safety. But when Blake offers her a lifeline-a fake marriage that could fix both their problems-she says yes, thinking she can keep her heart locked away. She was wrong. Because living with Blake means seeing the man beneath the armor-the one who holds her after nightmares, who touches her like she's something sacred, who makes promises in silence and stares. But falling for him was never part of the plan. And when the ghosts they tried to escape come back stronger than ever, their fragile love will be put to the ultimate test. Tangled Vows is a steamy, emotional best friends-to-lovers/marriage of convenience romance with a possessive hero, a survivor heroine, and a love that refuses to stay fake. Perfect for fans of deep feels, high stakes, and heartache you'll ache to relive.

UNTOLD by daphnewritesforyou

Delilah Monroe has spent two years trapped in a marriage that was never meant for love. Born into wealth and bound by duty, she plays the role of the perfect wife in public-graceful, elegant, untouchable. But behind closed doors, her husband is nothing more than a stranger, cold and distant, as if she were just another business acquisition. Adrian Lennox has everything: power, fortune, control. But the one thing he truly wants-the woman he secretly loves-must never know the depth of his feelings. Love is a weakness, and in their world, weaknesses are exploited. He keeps her at arm's length, not realizing that in doing so, he's slowly losing her. Their marriage is a lie. Their love is untold. But when a spark of jealousy ignites old desires, and a whispered secret threatens to shatter their fragile façade, Adrian is forced to make a choice: keep hiding in the shadows or risk everything to claim what was always his. Because love may be dangerous, but letting her go might be deadly.

Convenient Lies, Complicated Truths by rhonda92

When a family inheritance clause forces heiress Armani Sinclair into an arranged engagement, she thinks she's found the perfect solution-until she discovers what real love actually feels like. Armani Sinclair has eleven months to get married or lose control of her family's billion-dollar empire to her irresponsible cousin. Enter Jeremy Caldwell: charming, wealthy, and perfectly willing to enter a marriage of convenience that benefits them both. It should have been simple. A business arrangement between friends, a mutually beneficial partnership with no messy emotions involved. But Jeremy's growing indifference and public humiliations force Armani to question whether she's settling for less than she deserves. Then there's Dwayne Carter-Jeremy's best friend, a dedicated social worker who sees Armani for who she really is, not just what she represents. As the lines between convenience and genuine connection blur, Armani must decide: is saving her family's legacy worth sacrificing her chance at real love? In a world where image is everything and love is a luxury few can afford, sometimes the most dangerous thing you can do is choose your heart over your head.

A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1 by Author_Macy_Bae

If you're given a chance to live once more, will you take it? Even if... it comes at a cost? A dying woman reminisces on her short life and comes to regret not doing the things she likes - always sacrificing her own happiness for her family. On her deathbed, she whispers her wishes to a friend. "If only I could go back in time, I'll make sure to live my life for my sake and not somebody else's." Little did she know that her impossible wish would come true with the help of a mysterious woman. And in her second chance at life, she meets a certain problematic person... "Kaiden Ma" - a young and handsome genius who is also the richest heir in the East - has a little problem. One - he is way too grumpy; and two - he is mysophobic. With his family pushing him in a relationship, the problem escalated. For how can he possibly be in a relationship if he can't even touch anyone? Due to this, he is forced to look for a suitable "pretend" partner. "Senara Lee. I'd like to offer you a deal." "Hm? A deal? What deal?" "I need a fake girlfriend and you're the only one who's trustworthy enough to assume the position. Be my girlfriend for a year and I'll make one of your books into a movie." "For real?! You bet I'm in! Anything for my babies!" (babies - she's referring to her books, yes, she calls them her babies). And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game begins. Well, at least until the "Guardians of Fate" comes in. What will they do with this romance that wasn't supposed to be? And what is the cost of this new life she was given? 🌸 𝘼 𝘽𝙚𝙖𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝘾𝙖𝙩𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 🌸 ✅ A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1 🟨 A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 2 🟥 A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 3 - 4

Falling in love was thrown out of the window the moment she signed the contract, she wasn't going to fall in love with an egoistic, arrogant and self-centred-asshole of a lawyer anyways. ••• "No love drama, right?" "I'd rather die."
