Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #royalty(54)

Dodging assassins, the missing prince of a nation under military rule needs to save his people with the assistance of his bodyguard.

A sweet, cute and somewhat unashamedly over the top, yaoi version of Daddy Long Legs. There may have been some cringe moments, but they were the kind that leave you smiling and the HEA was practically fairy tale perfect.

Beautiful story, just like a romantic fairytale

Sure it’s a little over the top, but it was cute and adorable just the same lol.

This was a good read but it feels like it should be the start of a special series and ended too soon to best use these interesting characters.

I liked the first story of the Baron and Kikuchi Yo a lot, even though the Baron behaved terribly towards Yo. I think the reason why was because his actions highlighted how genuinely good natured Yo was and I felt so angry on his behalf. I would have loved seeing the Baron being made to suffer a bit, but Yo was bravely honest and courageous as he shared his feelings then moved on with his life. Gave me some empathetic twinges ╮(￣▽￣)╭

An old style romantic fairytale with a yaoi spin. A lonely prince forced to marry according to tradition and not for love and the poor but sweet boy who gets selected to be the unwitting bride. This is the kind of story where misconceptions and anger have the prince lashing out at his bride and using him cruelly because he believes that the boy he thought was beautiful is a gold digger. It made me feel super sorry for the uke to be forced and treated so coldly when he deserved kindness and respect. The prince needed to feel more pain for his treatment of his bride, I would have liked to see a bit more suffering tbh. Still, it’s literally a HEA for the pair and they are going to be alright in the long run.

I am usually a bonafide yaoi reader, but something about this story plot grabbed my attention and I thought to try a few chapters. Well, 52 chapters later and I finish with a few tear tracks but a happy feeling. There was something so beautiful about Ellin’s determination to grasp happiness, it was really an irresistible trait she personified. Then there was Advisor Kiha’s dedicated loyalty and love, even when events transpired that would cause anyone to wonder. He was remarkably unshakeable in his love and faith in Ellin, and that was melt worthy. Seriously, an excellent story with some beautiful artwork.

This was a very sweetly wholesome story about a villainess who may be forceful but she is far from evil. I loved her ability to outthink and out plot her enemies. This was no pushover damsel. Demon prince Claude was adorable with his moods showing in nature or the tiniest smile or blush upon his cheekbones. Very satisfying story.
