My rating: 7,9/10 I liked it. It was corny, especially the end, but it was sweet and I really liked the main couple. The ML was considerate ans it all was just very wholesome.

Chupa!

Complete | ueda rinko | 2000 released

My rating: 8/10 Awww, that was so cute. The age gap wasn't toxic here as the younger girl was the assertive one and they didn't do anything sexual. It was really pure. I love her bubbly character.

Complete | Shirley rogers,Tsumika abe,Harlequin | 2019 released

My rating: 7,6/10 The FL is quite shifty. She actually lied to him about taking the pill to secretly get his baby. I mean I get that she loves him, he's awesome, but that's a bit ... yea nah ...

Complete | Julia james,Hibiki sakuraya,Harlequin | 2019 released

My rating: 8,3/10 It was full of emotion, I loved it. She is such a queen singing "queen of the night" after he dumped all his cooked up assumptions on her and stabbing a knife into his table. I really enjoyed his regret.

The Reluctant Lover

Complete | Miranda lee,Rikako tsuji | 2019 released

My rating: 8/10 The beginning was just meh, it was a bit much the ML walking around naked like a greek god. But it got better and the story actually is about seeing people for who they really are and being there for each other ehen in difficult times. It's pretty wholesome.

The Doubtful Marriage

Complete | Betty neels,Subaru aokage,Harlequin | 2019 released

My rating: 8,3/10 The art is so beautiful!! I like the characters, it's interesting as they're not stereotypical for harlequin, especially the ML. He's a bit serious and odd in a good way. But I don't get why being a wife equals being employed. MARRIAGE, DOCTOR The FL was raised by her uncle and worked at his clinic as a nurse.

The Andreou Marriage Arrangement

Complete | Helen bianchin,Earithen,Harlequin | 2019 released

My rating: 7,5/10 It was alright. The ML's face looked a bit like a plank, but the art was ok otherwise.

Now she has to marry the former playboy, but she isn't ready for love due to her past trauma.

A Valentine for Daisy

Complete | Betty neels,Shizuku katsuragi | 2019 released

My rating: 7,8/10 The ML is a bit of a coward. He basically watches her all the time until the last couple of pages and thus seems pretty cold. His proposal came a bit out of the blue. The FL is an angel. She's so kind and flawless, it wouldn't surprise me if she began to shine or something. DOCTOR, CHILDREN, FINANCIAL GAP When the children at the nursery she works at suffer from food poisoning, the FL loses her job. Luckily, a handsome doctor she met in the process recommends her to his sister as a temporary nanny.
