    These two books are incredibly popular, both written by the same author. However, that doesn't stop them from being truly excellent. Both feature childhood sweethearts, and there's a slight angst in the middle to later parts, but it's not due to a breakup or being forced into a relationship. In the first book, the two reunite in university later on, and without any struggle or conflict, they get together the next day – it's a very good read. The second book starts with lively banter between the two. The angst in this book stems solely from the female lead's tragic past, making it very touching. There are no misunderstandings between the male and female leads; the angst is mainly due to the female lead's experiences. The later parts are sweet, and I highly recommend these two!
