Stasia Black’s Marriage Raffle series takes a dystopian concept and builds dark romance around it. In this world, a lottery system assigns marriages, and the six books published in 2018 and 2019 follow different couples forced together by the system. Each book explores how two strangers navigate an arranged relationship under unusual circumstances.
The premise gives Black a framework for the power dynamics and forced proximity that dark romance readers enjoy, but the dystopian setting adds a layer of worldbuilding beyond the typical contemporary romance setup. Starting with Their Honeymoon, the series cycles through different couples within the same world, showing how the raffle system affects people in different ways.
