The Reluctant Lover
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. BLIND ML, VACATION When the FL goes on vacation in her uncle's house at a beach, she encounters a naked, blind man, her neighbour. He turns out to be a famous sculpturer who lost his eyesight one year ago in a car accident and couldn't work since then.
Her Impossible Boss
My rating: 8,3/10 He's a jerk, but not intentionally, he just can't understand other people's feelings and is an arrogant workoholic. But he has a kind side. I loved the FL, she's funny and strong, she puts him in his place from the start. I loved seeing him regret his actions. CHILD, NANNY, PREGNANCY Bc his daughter rejected all the nannies he hired since he took her in after her mother's death, a company president hires the sister of one of his employees who's staying in America for the summer. But he didn't expect to fall for the bright girl who easily manages to bond with his daughter.
The Marriage Debt
My rating: 8,2/10 This was quite good. There actually was some development as the story was a two-shot and I liked the main couple. They felt drawn to each other right away but didn't confess until the end was near. I hate her brother tho, he's scum. DEATH ROW, DEBT, HISTORICAL Bc of the huge debt her brother made under her name, a young noble lady decides to marry a convict who's on death row as her debt would disappear the moment her husband died. But when she meets him, the man turns out to be gentle and sophisticated and on top of that wrongfully accused. To save him, she decides to search for the real culprit.
Alessandro's Prize
Nah ... that's really not it. Have they never heard of something like, maybe, COMMUNICATION? He basically just sexually assaults her the entire time without telling her about his feelings and she doesn't ask. Don't read it, it's not worth your time.
Hungarian Rhapsody
My rating: 7,8/10 It was funny. The ML was actually pretty childish and eccentric, I liked how he pretended to be serious in front of her just to panic when she turned her back. But her realising her love was weird, like an enlightenment. And the end felt cut off, there was something missing. ARTIST, AGE GAP (15 years), HUNGARY When a young noble lady comes to Hungary to let him paint her portrait, an eccentric artist decides to hate her in order not to be disappointed like every time before. But he can't help but fall for her and does everything to make her stay, starting with his refusal to paint her.
How Sweet is a Sugar Daddy
My rating: 8,5/10 It was an interesting story with complex characters. A lot of sex, but the plot was good too. I liked how sassy the uke could be, their dynamic was captivating. But they really had communication problems. SUGAR DADDY, AGE GAP (19 years), CHEATING He isn't gay and he doesn't like him, but when his best friend's older lover shows an interest in him, the uke plays along, even though the man is a successful doctor who's married with children.
Boku No Mama Chan (43) Kaihatsu Nikki
My rating 8/10 The art is amazing, it's rare to find something like this. I like that the uke actually isn't pretty and lean, he's a typical middle-aged man. The seme is HOT tho, and he's really crazy about him which makes the story a bit funny. ACTORS, AGE GAP (12 years), FANFICTION Bc they are the protagonists of a series about a detective and an inspector, lots of fans ship the middle-aged actor and his younger colleague. But what they don't know: The younger man is actually serious about his coworker who considers himself straight.
Koi wo Suru Tsumori wa Nakatta
My rating: 9/10 I really like this one. The seme is younger but a player who never fell in love himself and the uke is this calm, pure and genuinely nice character with a melancholic aura I really like. They are so cute together. AGE GAP, GAY BAR, PLAYBOY SEME The uke is a popular office worker who never had sex before nor has any experience with love. In order to lose his virginity, he goes to a gay bar where he meets the seme, a college student who plays around with love. They end up having sex, but then what?
Atotori Musuko wa Gaman shinai
My rating: 6/10 It was alright. I found it a bit unsettling that the uke literally helped raising the seme and that they frequently referred to those memories. Additionally, the seme was very forceful and there was a lot of dubcon. Overall much sex ... AGE GAP, PLAYBOY SEME, INN Now that the heir of the inn the uke has worked at finally is old enough, the uke is given the task to train him for taking over. But the heir is a player who demands at "treat" in return for not going out with girls. And he's really fixated on the uke.
