   If we're talking about childhood sweetheart stories, then it has to be "Little Demon King." This author's two childhood sweetheart novels are incredibly sweet, purely sweet with no angst, no angst, and not even the smallest conflicts that would cause plot twists—just pure, unadulterated sweetness. After reading them, even insulin prices went up! The third book is also a childhood sweetheart story, but compared to "Little Demon King," it's rather mediocre. It's kind of a cheap alternative I found when I was out of other reading.
