   This period military romance novel has a slightly lower rating due to its title, but it's perfectly normal [laughs]. It features nobles, but not overwhelmingly powerful; a king of soldiers, but not a rough, uncouth man, nor obsessive; instead, they possess refined elegance, stunning good looks, and are ridiculously handsome [OK]. They're aloof and reserved in public, but transform into a deeply affectionate and charming wolf behind closed doors [smirks]. The female lead is beautiful and noble, lives a refined life, and never mistreats herself. She's a domineering older sister figure to outsiders, but a sweet and charming little devil to her inner self [smirks]. There aren't many truly exceptional characters, and the plot is free of melodramatic clichés; it's mostly about the sweet daily lives of the male and female leads as they grow together [OK]. It's a sweet and doting novel, pampering to the extreme without being artificial. If you're not afraid of being overwhelmed by sweetness, click in [thinking].
