He's the grumpy innkeeper who offers her a roof...and maybe a way to stay.\n

Gayle lives by a simple work hard, plan for the worst, and pray for the best. Her life has been a relentless pursuit of stability until one devastating event turns her into a fugitive. Forced to flee the island she calls home, Gayle leaves the life she built and the family she loves.

Crescent Bay is supposed to be a temporary stop. But when she arrives in the sleepy coastal town, a desperate favor leads her to Jiraiya a brooding innkeeper with a struggling Bed & Breakfast and no patience for strangers.

Their deal is she'll help revive the inn, and he'll give her a job and a place to stay. Between the town's quirky charm, the freedom from her past, and the quiet intensity of the man she's living with, Gayle starts to imagine a new kind of future when her haunting reality presents a hopeless dilemma. Unable to return home, and with only three months to stay in the country, her only solution is a marriage of convenience to the one man who sees through her walls and makes her feel truly alive.

\n Perfect for lovers of grumpy x sunshine, marriage of convenience, slow burn chemistry, and emotional Black romance with heart. \n","spice","series_order","average_rating","reviews_count",0,"editions_count",1,"contributors",[],"authors",[98],"The Fiancé Favor","edition_id","c7966246-601e-4b10-a13d-27981e9713f4","series","year",2025,"first_published","Jul 2025","likes_count","collections_count","slug","1768-the-fiance-favor","format",{"_19":93,"_70":94,"_95":96,"_97":80},"page_count",330,"duration","published_date","July 8, 2025","isbn","9798999170408","asin","B0FBKF1DLC","hex_code","#c9af9f","language","English","cover","https://cdn.blackauthored.com/books/1755i/c7966246-601e-4b10-a13d-27981e9713f4.jpg","rating_distribution",{"_86":87,"_88":89},"tags",[67,68],{"_19":82,"_70":83,"_72":73,"_21":-5,"_44":84,"_75":85,"_77":78,"_79":80,"_81":27},{"_19":69,"_70":71,"_72":73,"_21":-5,"_44":74,"_75":76,"_77":78,"_79":80,"_81":27},34,"name","Marriage of Convenience","category","trope","marriage-of-convenience","url","/tropes/marriage-of-convenience","selectable",true,"sensitive",false,"position",42,"Slow Burn","slow-burn","/tropes/slow-burn","ratings",{},"recommend",{"_90":27,"_91":27,"_92":27},"yes","no","maybe",3,"Kindle","type","print","audio",{"_19":99,"_70":100,"_44":101,"_102":-5,"_103":-5,"_104":105,"_106":107},"0988191b-abd3-4445-a26f-1589bd42bc0b","Joanna Kimber","152-joanna-kimber","biography","image","books_count",8,"roles",[108],"author","isLoggedIn",["P",110],"result","seo",{"_13":120,"_121":122,"_21":123,"_124":125,"_75":12,"_126":127,"_128":129},"user","themePreference","light","storedTheme","gaId","G-Z1HVZ17GZ3","Blackauthored","titleTemplate","%s","Find your next Black authored read and connect with readers with the similar taste.","handle","@blackauthored","robots",{"_150":80,"_151":80},"jsonLd",{"_130":131,"_132":133,"_70":120,"_134":135,"_136":137,"_75":12,"_138":139},"@context","https://schema.org","@type","Organization","logo","https://cdn.blackauthored.com/images/og-image.png","sameAs",[145,146,147,148,149],"potentialAction",{"_132":140,"_141":142,"_143":144},"SearchAction","target","https://blackauthored.com/books/1768-the-fiance-favor/reviewssearch?q={search_term}","query","required name='search_term'","https://twitter.com/blackauthored","https://facebook.com/blackauthored","https://instagram.com/blackauthored","https://youtube.com/blackauthored","https://tiktok.com/@blackauthored","noIndex","noFollow"]
