It’s probably better paced in the novel. Also I actually didn’t take the blackmail seriously. Ik it’s manipulative but I got the sense he wasn’t going to actually do it. But of course she doesn’t know that.

The only negative points about the ML is that he blackmailed her, other that he was a pretty good guy. For Harlequin standard, he is actually pne of the top tier ML.
He came out to pretty quickly, she didn't have to suffer to know about his past. Before confessing to her, he showed her his vulnerable side that's very important imo for a healthy relationship.
I really loved the FL! She really is a strong and realistic person and isn't easily swayed away by the ML.
In general, I loved their chemistry. In the beginning he was very pushy, but she always resisted and didn't fall in love suddenly. And he was always taken aback by her responses, which was cute to see. Both of them had their tragic past as usual, but it was nice to see how they truly overcame it with each other's help with no unnecessary drama.
What I love the most is the humor in this manga, which is practically nonexistent in harlequins. Their conversations, especially her responses, were awesome. The bond between the sister and the ml is a cherry on top!
This story could have been delivered much better, if they didn't squeeze everything in one volume, but that's Harlequin... Now I really want to read the novel!
