    This is a realistic sweet romance novel; it doesn't rely on the domineering CEO trope, and it's not mindlessly sweet. The two male leads' love isn't immediately accepted and blessed by their parents; rather, they gradually change their parents' opinions over time. It feels very real, but it's incredibly sweet! A really good read.
