Comadrin's manga / #Decent ML(20)

I liked it. The ML and FL were scarred but quite decent people. It was something of a dark story, with a horrible past for both main characters, but they rose above it. Unfortunately, people like Andrew, her filthy mother, and the pedophile teacher are all too common in the world. I loved the idea of pretty boy scumbag's face being pounded in.

I enjoyed it. ML started out pretty overbearing, but he mellowed and began to respect her values more. He ended up as a really decent character. I felt that his transformation was believable and not the Josef Stalin into Mother Theresa trope Harlequin authors are so fond of. Well done, Carole and Kanoko!

I liked it. ML had some handicaps from his childhood to overcome, but he wasn't a jerk like so many HQ MLs with childhood trauma. He was a really decent guy and very kindly. FL was a great person and not a wimp melting at the first hint of testosterone. Her attraction to the ML was understandable and due to his good character and not his tantric charisma.

I’m shocked. A Greek entrepreneur ML in an Harlequin story who ISN’T a testosterone sodden psychopath whose misogyny is world record breaking. Not only that, he used his horrible upbringing as a stepping stone to success and to develop empathy for the less fortunate instead of as an excuse to enjoy defiling innocent girls and kicking them to the curb. It must be confusing to many HQ readers, since both Greek and Italian ML’s are almost invariably painted up as misogynistic and sadistic horndogs who are absolutely certain that all women are gold-digging sluts and that they themselves occupy the moral high ground. Strange how these Southern European scumbags are always created by English speaking authors!

Very nice story. It had a certain amount of redemption for both MCs. Even with the "forgiveness" toward his father, I still would have published all the recordings and sent the sheriff and judge to jail, along with Daddy Dearest. Crooked people in taxpayer paid positions of power deserve twice the sentence that normal schmoes would get for doing the crime. Rich entitled scum that use their power and crooked means to destroy people should be in jail, no matter what their boo hoo health problems. Also, since the ML is a Senator, for him not to uphold the law would make him a total hypocrite and lawbreaker (as though that's something new for a politician!).

I really liked it. There was none of this, "I'll take my child away from you in court, you @#$%$#," no threats, and no blackmail or revenge. They realized that both of them had made mistakes, and they grew with that knowledge. I also absolutely loved it when the FL pretended she couldn't see the snotty woman who completely ignored her in the restaurant. I like women with that kind of spunk (even when it's directed at me!).

Good story. The thing I couldn't understand was the father's motive. It didn't really come out in what I read. Of course, he may just have been a delusional, narcissistic psychopath who hated the world and wanted to destroy lives, but that doesn't make sense. Anyway, I rather liked the couple and her sister.

The ML was a good and compassionate person and his mother rocked. It was a good story and I enjoyed it. Oh yes… I loved the FL, too!

I enjoyed it. The MC's were really decent characters. The bigotry was historically accurate. I'm mainly of Welsh ancestry, and my great grandparents moved to the US in the 1880's partially because they were regarded as close to subhuman by many of the English people of Sheffield where they lived. We, as a species, have come a long way since then, but, as the events of the last ten or so years show, we still have a long way to go with the incessant noise of those who would turn the clock back to apartheid, Jim Crow laws, and ethnic hatred.

Not bad. Plot was different.
