Yane's manga / #Harlequin(79)

My rating: 7,8/10 I liked how strong and caring the FL was. The set-up itself was quite cliché, but it was a nice read nevertheless. Again, some grave trauma got thrown into the mix, but the story was rather cute. CONTRACTUAL MARRIAGE, CHILDREN A rich businessman asks a poor mother to be his wife for 3 months so he can take over his grandfather's company. In exchange, he helps her keep her daughter and pays her a hefty sum.

My rating: 8/10 I liked it. I begin to wonder if all the author's FLs look and act the same, but I like them, so it's ok. I just wish the ML didn't wear these glasses. WORK, CHILD, WIDOWER When her boss asks her to seduce the head of the company he's trying to buy out, the FL is opposed to the idea. But when they meet, they're naturally attracted to each other. And when his mother falls ill, he takes her with him to look after his daughter.

My rating: 8/10 I liked that the FL was actually pretty normal looking. The story clearly had the message: what matters is the inner beauty. BLIND ML, PREGNANCY, ONE-NIGHT STAND After a one-night stand with a mysterious and blind customer at the cottage B&B she works at, the FL finds out that he is actually a famous CEO. He is already gone, but when she realises she's pregnant, she goes after him.

My rating: 6,2/10 Slow down, you barely know each other! Also, he basically blackmailed her into marrying him. Meanwhile, the FL contradicted herself and acted like a lovestruck puppy. Nah ... FOREIGNER, ROYALTY, KIDNAPPING On her vacation, the FL gets kidnapped and then saved by the ruler of the country she's visiting. She plans on going home, but he says he has to marry her to calm his people.

My rating: 8,2/10 This one was really good. I loved how kind the ML was, and he fell first on top of that. The FL was no disappointment either, it was really cute overall. But her sister was scum. FOREIGNER, ROYALTY, CHILD The FL raises her sister's son in her stead, but one day, the ruler of a foreign country arrives claiming that he needs to take the child with him as his successor. As she wants to protect the child, the FL comes along as the stranger's bride.

My rating: 7,6/10 I liked it, the plot was quite interesting. The FL wasn't that weak, but she gave up on the ML way to easily. Other than that, only the scene where he had to identify her foot was ridiculous. REUINION, GOVERNESS, HISTORICAL When her stepfather tells her that her beloved stepbrother is going to marry another woman, the FL flees and starts working as a governess under a different name. Years later, she meets her stepbrother again by chance and he still loves her.

My rating: 8,3/10 Awwww this was so cute and funny. The ML was a prick at the beginning, but she didn't really submit to him so it was rather entertaining. I wish there was more of their romance. OFFICE ROMANCE, CEO, SECRETARY When the FL enters her new company, she gets informed that she will be the temporary replacement of the CEO's secretary. But the man is a rude workoholic, will they get along?

My rating: 7,7/10 It was really cute. Everyone was likable and there were zero toxic people around. The only thing that bugged me a bit was how insecure the FL was. She literally blamed herself for everything. REUNION, CHILDHOOD FRIENDS After many years, the FL meets the young master of the household again her mother worked at. They were close friends back then, so he hires her at his company and wants to make her happy. But her life hasn't been easy being a widow with twins.

My rating: 8/10 I liked it. The FL and the ML were both likable and made a very good couple, I hate her father for tearing them apart in the past and treeating his family the way he did. He doesn't deserve the forgiveness they granted him. REUNION, REVENGE, OFFICE When the FL goes to work at the company that once belonged to her father as the CEO's secretary, her boss turns out to be her ex who one day vanished without a word. But he believes that she drove him away.

My rating: 6,3/10 Ok, I get that he hated her, he showed that more than clearly. But why did they break up in the first place? I'm so confused. He's so self-centred, he doesn't deserve her. RACER, PARALYSED, REUNION, CHILD After four years of being apart, a famous racer has a malor accident and gets paralysed from the waist down and his ex shows up introducing him to their son. They marry for the child, but her love remains unrequited.
