   The first book is doing well so far, the second book was okay in the early to mid-stages, but the plot got a bit dragging and the romance became a bit messy later on. The third book is super good, I won't spoil it, just read it yourself!

   Both are arranged marriages that blossom into love, with the male lead falling in love first and the female lead remaining clear-headed. There are a few minor angst-filled moments, but those with a low tear threshold won't cry. The first book's angst lies in the relationship between the male and female leads (it's a bit heartbreaking), while the second focuses on the female lead's family background. Both are still very good books.

    It's so good! The male lead is incredibly charming, with a touch of coercion, but she doesn't feel wronged. She's a bit of a wolf in sheep's clothing, but it doesn't feel like she's deliberately trying to seduce him. I love this type of story—the guy pursues the girl! 🥰
