    These are all romance novels with an age gap, where the male lead is often older than the female lead and dotes on her like a daughter. The first book features a fatherly boyfriend who can turn into a werewolf versus a silly, funny female lead. The second book features a beautiful but clumsy artist versus a stoic, cunning professor. The third book features a seemingly refined but actually ruthless younger brother versus a sweet and delicate female lead. The fourth book features a female college student (a writer) versus a cool, aloof, and secretly passionate professor. The fifth book features a gentle and beautiful female lead (a comic artist) versus a domineering, fatherly male lead.

    I recently started reading this. The female lead has strong moral values, isn't a typical "strong woman" type, but she's not a naive or overly sweet character either. She's clear-headed and doesn't adhere to traditional ancient romance tropes, sacrificing her family for the male lead. It's funny. The male lead is a doting father figure, and it's super sweet. The author's writing is excellent, highly recommended!!!
