What if the best marriage starts with no love at all?
Liam Page has lost too much: two wives, his faith, and nearly himself. Now, as a single father to baby Olive, he’s determined to stay sober, stay steady, and never marry again, especially not for love. But when Lynsi Torres, a fellow teacher and friend, faces losing custody of her orphaned niece, Stella, she makes Liam an offer he can’t refuse: a marriage in name only to secure Stella’s future.
Lynsi needs a British husband to adopt Stella before their Christmas Eve court date. Liam needs help with Olive...and maybe, just maybe, a reason to believe in second chances. It’s a practical solution, nothing more. Love isn’t required.
But as they navigate family skepticism, legal hurdles, and their own fragile hearts, Liam and Lynsi discover that God’s plans don’t always follow the rules. When Stella falls ill and Olive’s laughter fills their home, the lines between convenience and care begin to blur. Can two people who swore off love find healing, trust, and a family they never expected?
A tender Christian romance about faith, redemption, and the unexpected gifts of marriage. Perfect for fans of:
This book is as good as a warm hug. Two teachers, Liam and Lynsi, teach in the same school in England. They are both going through life-changing situations without a spouse but with children and decide to marry to solve some of their problems. They take the leap without knowing much about each other, which inevitably makes the adjustment more difficult. The children add a great deal to the story. Especially Stella who is nine and very much knows the way things should be. She has no problem expressing her opinions to her Aunt Lynsi and Uncle Liam. Lynsi is an American who still hasn't quite grasped many of the differences between British and American terms. All in all, I couldn't stop reading this story because I got so involved with the characters.
“Love Not Required by Clare Revell is a beautiful, faith-filled Christmas romance about two people who have every reason to keep their hearts guarded—and every reason to finally let God break down their walls. Liam and Lyndsi have both suffered great loss, and that shared grief makes their emotional journey deeply moving and surprisingly relatable. I appreciated how real they felt: they’re imperfect, a little wary, and carrying past hurts, which makes their growth and eventual relationship all the more satisfying. The romance unfolds at a gentle pace with meaningful conversations, believable conflict, and a sweet payoff that left me smiling. The spiritual thread is strong but natural, highlighting themes of grief, trust, surrender, and learning that God’s plans for us are often very different—and far better—than our own. Content-wise, this is a clean read with no profanity and closed-door romance (though there was plenty of chemistry between Liam and Lyndsi), making it a great fit for

Lynsi Torres, guardian of her brother’s nine-year-old daughter, Stella has befriended Liam since they began teaching in the same school. Her mantra: I will not crush on my friend. He notices more of her and things of her also. Lynsi’s lawyer drops her custody case the day before her landlord says he’s sold her apartment building. Lynsi and Liam favored an evening together with their girls. The new solicitor says if she’d marry a Brit there’d be no problem with adopting her niece. She says to Liam, “Marry me.” What? He’d vowed never to marry after losing two wives. He thought about it. He prayed. As friends, he agreed. And privately each becomes more attracted. Stella’s appendix bur
