Good plot until the last couple of pages - worst ending I've read in a Harlequin-book-turned- into-manga-oneshot

A pretty decent plot, until, yet again, the ending. So goddamn ridiculous and over the top. Also, how come the female is always a damsel in distress in Harlequin books? Why the hell can't she ever be stubborn or headstrong like the Harlequin-stereotypical man? I don't get it and can't relate to the Harlequin-woman, which makes the reading boring, cliché and uninteresting to me

I liked the story and the heroine until the whole marriage-business. I thought she was likeable, with her realistic coldness and stubborness. The whole story just went downhill after that. First of all, no one proposes to anyone in the middle of a fire rescue. Second of all, hiding such important pieces of information, a k a her secrets, is just cheap ways to create drama and plot. But since a little more than the first half of the book was enjoyable, realistic and likeable, I gave it three stars

I read it a long time ago and really liked it then. Now, when I've re-read it again, I don't feel the same way since a lot of the situations and misunderstandings are caused by the heroine herself; she really should learn to stand up for herself and be stubborn about her wants and rights

A few years have passed since I read this manhwa, but I still like it! It's really funny, and I recommend it to anyone who wants a nice, fun and young read

A great, fun manga with a deeper message as well – don't overlook it!

If you like cheap drama, slow romance, ridiculous conversations trying to pose as serious and deep, poor character development, and cliché and weak plot, this is a manga for you! It was a nice idea to begin with, but now it's just gone overboard and the quality keeps on diminishing per volume. It has nice drawing, though, and could be spot on for those who like typical teen-drama a lá e.g. Gossip Girl and The OC.

One of the best mangas I've ever read (and re-read) – it's just fantastic, don't miss this one!

A really fun manga! I recommend it strongly, though I warn you: the heroine's parents have a very tragical story. Bring those tissues and be prepared to cry!
