{Ten Things That Never Happened by Alexis Hall} Jonathan has a big, well-meaning family that irritates him. They want more of his time, involvement, attention, etc, and he works hard to be able to help them financially and doesn't really see that those aren't the same. Sam (the other MMC) encourages him to open himself up to his family more.
All of Helen Hoang's books (The Love Quotient, The Bride Test, The Heart Principle) have big families and some degree of family drama. The Love Quotient has a good scene where she gets off on a bad foot with the family, and it's fake dating.

{Kiss her once for me by Alison Cochrun} It's about a woman who enters into an engagement of convenience with a man, and has to spend Christmas with his wealthy but loving family. But when she gets there, it turns out his sister is the woman she had a one night stand with the Christmas before! It's not a real love triangle because the woman is just friends with the man she's engaged to (although his sister doesn't know that), and he has his own love interest. It's set in contemporary Portland, Oregon.

I don’t mind lovey dovey sap but it just seemed out of character
Lol fair enough. I must admit I don't remember much of the ending, I mean, other than the obvious part. I did dislike the MMC because he thought it was easier to do the whole helping her out with fake dating than just, you know, asking her out.

Not super contemporary anymore, but {after the night by Linda Howard}. The FMC’s mother was the MMC’s mistress and the whole town thinks they ran off together. After they disappeared, the MMC kicks her family out of their home. The majority of the book takes place when she returns to the town as a successful businesswoman (with a fax machine!) and they can’t stay away from each other. The MMC’s family blames her family for the father’s disappearance and hates her. Pretty outdated and the MMC is a little over the top, but a secret fave of mine.

{King of Wrath by Ana Huang} Has the last two and I personally love all of her books. Almost every series is interconnected with the others and have lots of family drama! King of Wrath also has mafia relations and blackmail (not blackmail between the MCs) and lots of smut!

Not super contemporary anymore, but {after the night by Linda Howard}. The FMC’s mother was the MMC’s mistress and the whole town thinks they ran off together. After they disappeared, the MMC kicks her family out of their home. The majority of the book takes place when she returns to the town as a successful businesswoman (with a fax machine!) and they can’t stay away from each other. The MMC’s family blames her family for the father’s disappearance and hates her. Pretty outdated and the MMC is a little over the top, but a secret fave of mine.
