About the Dating by Numbers series

Dating by Numbers is an early Meghan Quinn romantic-comedy series built around gimmick-driven dating premises: Three Blind Dates follows a heroine roped into a set of comically mismatched blind dates, Two Wedding Crashers sends a pair of friends crashing weddings together, and One Baby Daddy takes on an accidental-pregnancy, unlikely-partnership setup. A connecting novella, Back in the Game, slots between the second and third books and follows a supporting character finding her own romance amid the same friend group.

All four books released within months of each other in 2018, giving the series a rapid-fire, binge-friendly release pattern typical of Quinn's early self-published output. The series leans into her broad comedic instincts and numbered, checklist-style premises (blind dates, crashed weddings), a device she returned to in later series, while keeping the emotional stakes grounded in genuine friendship among the recurring cast.

This is a good entry point for readers curious about Quinn's earlier, punchier romantic comedies before her later series took on more elaborate, multi-book world-building; each book stands alone with a different couple, tied together by an overlapping friend group.
