Again, I must have forgotten about that... I really have to reread the books!
Well then, maybe they weren't in love when they got married, but after the marriage Jerome fallen in love with her... It would be good to know how long are they married, because I might have a theory...

According to the book, just a few weeks prior to their adoption of the Baudelaires, they married and moved to Jerome's newly-acquired penthouse at 667 Dark Avenue.

It does indeed say that they moved into the penthouse only a few weeks before, but I don't think it says they married then - and the way Jerome discusses In Auctions suggests they've been married for ssome time. On the other hand, TUA implies Jerome owned the penthouse before the marriage - but as soemone pointed out in an earlier discussion, he might have owned it without living there.

I think Esme managed to convince Jerome that they were madly in love with each other.

Jerome is a man that hates to fight or disagree, so Esme probably persuaded him into marrying her. I personally believe Esme only married Jerome to have access to the penthouse. There is an underground passageway from the penthouse to the remains of my mansion that I recently discovered. I'm unsure what significance that has to Esme, though.

No. Esme married Jerome because it was part of her plot. Look in TUU for proof.

The caption on the invitations to their wedding in TUA says "Esmé and Jerome: married after only one evening together." Obviously, they barely knew eachother at all. I agree with Lachrymose that it was all part of Esmé's plan, and we've seen from other things that Jerome has done that he's quite naïve. I doubt that she was ever truly in love with him, and I don't even think he was actually in love with her. He just believed her when she said that she loved him. And, of course, it also says in TUA that if he had gotten the letter from...I believe it was Jacques...in time, that he would not have married her. The letter was intercepted, so he married her, obviously thinking that it was the right thing to do.
