    These three books are all by the same author and are all excellent! The first book begins with the male protagonist's father consulting a fortune teller to find someone who can change his son, eventually leading him to the female protagonist and proposing a marriage between their families. I can't explain this clearly here; you can read it yourself. The second book involves the male protagonist's grandfather knowing he likes the female protagonist, winning a bet with her grandfather, and arranging a marriage between their families. The third book features a male protagonist adopted by the female protagonist's grandfather, who later feigns illness to force them into marriage. The female protagonist's character develops more into a character. In summary, all three books involve arranged marriages leading to love and marriage within wealthy families. The female protagonists in all three stories are characters who undergo significant growth, and the male protagonists act as guiding lights on their path, accompanying and leading them.
