    This book is amazing! The male lead is incredibly in love with the female lead, it's super, super sweet! In his past life, he thought the female lead hated him and was too afraid to approach her, so he was murdered. In this life, the female lead is reborn, gets close to the male lead, and is completely taken advantage of by him. The male lead spoils her rotten! The epilogue even makes up for the regrets of the past life, it's super, super sweet! The author is incredibly talented; I was blushing and my heart was racing while reading it late at night!

    Fifteen short stories, all about broken relationships that can't be mended. I highly recommend the first one; the plot is brilliant!
