Marriage of Inconvenience is a multi-author Harlequin series spanning from 1996 to 2011, built around the classic romance trope of marriages entered for reasons other than love. The books cover fake engagements, marriages of convenience, shotgun weddings, and other situations where two people find themselves legally tied before they have sorted out their feelings.
Abby Gaines contributed several entries to the line, including The Groom Came Back and His Wife for One Night. The series features work from dozens of Harlequin romance authors, and each book stands on its own with a complete story and a satisfying resolution.
