I'm all up for free love and I dont give a damn abt huge age gaps at all, but this still just bothers me I could read about a 10-20-30 yr age gap and be fine. It's not about the age gap but the ML's issues. His love is mixed with emotional dependency/desperation from a lot of childhood mother/parent issues. It feels real off coz MC co-raised him with her daughter in a sort of semi-family dynamic. They saw each other everyday for a long period and MC had a real connection to him as a semi-parent/guardian from ML's perpective. Even the present dynamic feels like fulfilling mother issues through MC. Not to mention how his desperation became toxic morality/emotional blackmail, which appeared as a real threat for MC with her relationship to her daughter (lowkey disgusted by that move ngl).
Anyw I did read it still, the sex scenes were chef kiss juicy and treating the morality of it as part of the drama was what entertained me. No hate to anyone who enjoyed it but I'm giving context to why ppl (and me) got disturbed, peace xoxo
