Her inferiority complex keeps her from being confident about herself, until she receives a letter from an old friend, Joe, the kind boy who always helped her. He would be just the one to help her find her perfect husband and start a happy family! Joe is now a CEO, who accepts the request to act as a sounding board for his now beautiful childhood friend. Addy dines out, goes to the movies and kisses the always strong-willed and now majestic and alluring Joe... Is love next?

She should’ve become a nun instead.

I picked this one because it sounded like a trainwreck, and I just couldn't turn away. Well, it wasn't as big of a crash as I was expecting. Still, not exactly great either. I also didn't exactly understand how Addy was okay with the quick escalation of their relationship, esp after being in a convent for most of her life. I was expecting some stuff after marriage, you know. Oh well, this is what it is, a wreck of disappointingly small proportions.

Me sentí como en un viaje hacia los viejos romances, con ese cliché que tanto me gusta.

Hay una escena que me gustó mucho, Addy rodeada con flores, es un dibujo tan sensual, hermoso y muy femenino sin llegar a caer en lo vulgar.


Como comentario adicional, este es el primer manga-historieta que leo de Harlequin, dos cosas que me gustan mucho, ¡tenerlos juntos fue realmente genial! Muchas gracias a quien se le ocurrió esta fusión <3

I don't like the drawing. I also don't like the story much but it's okay. I was just reading this to kill the time anyway.
