7/10
I like the story and the ML. He's so overprotective of her and I'm a sucker for "unrequited" love tropes. But the FL is kinda dumb always starting things to help him and ending up needing to be rescued.
YAKUZA, AGE GAP (18 years)
After her parent's death the FL finds out she's the head of a yakuza clan's granddaughter. When he takes her in a man (ML) attacks and she saves his life making him swear to protect her. Years later he's the second in command and the succession is at stake
8,9/10
I really liked it. The FL is strong and funny while the ML is kind of cute but cool as well. They're a hilarious couple. It was so entertaining, I read it in one go.
BODYGUARD, COMEDY, STRONG FL
When the poor FL who is looking for a job to support her little brother meets a stranger, she "saves" him from the man chasing him. But they turn out to be master and bodyguard and now the stranger wants to hire her as his bodyguard as well.
10/10
This psychological drama has so many layers it keeps me on my toes. The characters are all interesting and many of them have dark connected secrets. It's all a big mystery slowly coming to light. The FL's strong and the art is amazing too.
MYSTERY, PSYCHOLOGICAL, SMUT
An author and lecturer hooks up with an older police officer because she wants him to tell her things about his work and help her with her novel. But then she finds out that he's the father of the student who loves her.
7/10
I love the characters. The ML's a player with mommy issues and the FL's an introvert. The plot kept me on the edge of my seat. But there are so many harmful and toxic things happening in here while the story keeps its "cute" vibe. And the ending is rushed.
YAKUZA, MANGAKA, DEBT, SMUT
After carelessly becoming the guarantor for her friend's loan, a mangaka is told to settle his huge debt. The yakuza who visits her agrees to wait for the repayment if she sleeps with him
5/10
I like the suspense, the pairing of a romance story and a crime story. But the FL disappoints me. She started off so strong only to turn out to be a weak woman in need of a man to save her.
MURDER, ARRANGED MARRIAGE
One day after work, the FL witnesses a suspicious man fleeing from a crime scene. To her horror, said man later turns out to be her arranged marriage partner. But she decides to use this opportunity and find out if he's really the killer.
