The second one is about rebirth and is also quite sweet, with over 90 extra chapters. The third one has aphasia, but it gets better later, and there are also many extra chapters, around 70.

The story is initially bittersweet, but later the antagonist treats her very well, resulting in a happy ending (though there's also some angst later on).

    Yes, some are available! The first book features couples with psychological issues, and the protagonist (uke) is especially heartbreaking—highly recommended! The second book is a marriage of convenience that blossoms into love; it's pure romance, and the male lead (seme) is incredibly devoted—his love is truly admirable! Highly recommended!!! Also, those who prefer shorter stories can enjoy it! The entire book, including the extras, has only 52 chapters.
