I almost gave up on the book because of the title; I thought it would be another formulaic "spoiled wife" romance. But it's not! Our female lead is amazing, with strong opinions and her own ideas. The title and synopsis say the male lead is a retired soldier who goes into business, but it's not just him. The female lead also puts in a lot of effort.
This is arguably one of Tomato's top-ranked period dramas, and the female lead has an incredibly cute personality. Most importantly, it has no special abilities or cheat codes [this is my biggest pet peeve; Tomato's novels already have female lead halos, and adding a special ability or cheat code would make me wonder what the supporting characters would even do].
I really like Dede and the male lead.
It's actually quite a good watch; it's a story about a husband and wife starting a business and moving forward hand in hand amidst the tides of time.
It looks great, I hope the misunderstanding will be cleared up soon.
It's really good, it would be even better if it didn't have a bloodsucking mother.
No melodramatic plot twists, no illogical or eccentric characters, just a positive and uplifting story set in an era.
It's pretty good, why hasn't anyone rated it?
It's pretty good, it's closer to reality 😄
Well written, worth reading.
