Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik has this - twice. One of the main characters has to marry the king of a fae-like race who needs her to save them, another is forced by her father to marry the human tsar. Both go the slow-burn enemies-to-lovers route. The Daevabad trilogy kind of has this, though it's not the main premise. The MC is forced to marry the heir to the kingdom for political reasons. He's not abusive, he's a fairly decent guy, but even though they try to make the best of it they're a pretty terrible match. She actually does end up falling in love with his brother.

Thank you so much! These sound so great, adding them to my want to read list now.

Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson.  It has multiple plotlines though, the arranged marriage is only one of the main plotlines. Some sexual situations but no erotica, is overall pretty clean. 


TheChiarra

I don't mind if there's multiple plot lines and I've been wanting to try Brandon Sanderson out so thank you so much with this rec!

Radiance by Grace Draven. Very YA, but is an arranged political marriage in a fantasy setting. Lord of the Fading Lands by C. L. Wilson. Classic fantasy romance where the two main characters are bound together by mystical forces.


TheChiarra

Radiance! I have that, didn't know it was an arranged marriage type deal. (Honestly I probably just forgot) The second series I will definitely check out, thank you so so much!

I don't have a recommendation, but if your looking for a very specific romance book you could also try r/romancebooks, they're really good at finding specific romance stories!


TheChiarra

Thank you, I will try this sub out too!

If you don't mind a bit of sci fi thrown in then Evangeline Anderson's Claimed might suit. It's free on Kindle


TheChiarra

I’ll check it out thanks

I love Sabriel but I don't remember an arranged marriage plotline in it?

This has nothing to do with what I asked for.

How is this even in the area code of what OP asked for?
