The love story between the perfect, strong-willed princess and her bodyguard is clear and well-developed, not the cheesy "love at first sight" trope. Each character is distinctly portrayed; for example, the female lead doesn't have that typical, naive, romantic mindset. 🍂Second book: A rebirth story. In her past life, the princess received kindness from her bodyguard and gradually opened her heart to him. Reborn, the princess only wants to love that bodyguard. 🍂Third book: A time-travel story. A modern-day agent transmigrates into the body of an ancient princess, teasing the aloof bodyguard until he becomes easily agitated, constantly engaging in heart-to-heart talks and emotional manipulation!
