The Not So series by Elle Christensen plays with popular romance tropes through three books. Not-So Temporarily Married (2016) started the series, followed by Not-So Fake Fiancé and Not-So Real Breakup in 2023.
Each title takes a familiar romance premise — a marriage of convenience, a fake engagement, a staged breakup — and turns it into a genuine love story. The playful naming convention signals the lighthearted tone that sets these books apart from Christensen’s darker MC and mafia romances.
