    First book: The male lead is a guiding lover; the female lead isn't from a wealthy family, but a down-on-her-luck female celebrity. The middle part is a bit difficult to read because of the female lead's avoidant personality, but most of it is very sweet. Second book: Unrequited love comes true; the male lead intentionally seduces the female lead, and she actually falls for it (hahaha). A sweet story, recommended.
