Rating: 4 stars.

A manga adaptation of 'The Tycoon Prince' by the same author, with some slight changes like the hero's name! T-T

The art style is very dated.. It looks like something you'd see from the 80's. It. Was. Weird. I didn't know whether I was reading a scifi comic from the 80's or whether I was reading a Harlequin manga from the 21st century. The illustration of the king aswell.. goodness what is he? A warlock magic elder from the Lord of the Rings franchise or something? He could even pass as Dumbledore. ( ? _ ? )



The artstyle though.. omg. This is when they first kiss. Looks like the angel behind them wants to kill them for kissing on sacred ground lol. CREEPY.



The manga was alright. I wish I could obtain a copy of 'The Tycoon Prince' (the original written work of this manga), but I can't find it anywhere and most of the online ebooks stores don't currently sell it in the UK.

............WALA PAY MAS CHEESY ANI TEH????

KAY GANAHAN KO. *coughs*

Who wouldn't? I just can't resist blonde bishies.

Esp. a lost prince slash CEO slash construction worker (as a hobby LOLz).

Contrary to other reviews, I actually liked the artwork even if it's dated. I prefer this kind of art in romance manga.

The ending was too rushed. Yah, kay nakulangan pa ko. I need more cheesiness in my life with extra dose of frosting. GRRRRR!!!!

The art is dated, but I liked it just the same. The story was cute too. I esp. liked how misunderstandings can be corrected. As someone who often leaves misunderstandings alone, it was nice to read.

It's a cute story. Clarissa gets another shot at love after losing her former love in a accident. Clarrissa goes to bring Jack home and ends up falling in love.

I really enjoyed this story and probably would have enjoyed a longer version of the story even more.

I'm not fan of the art. I thought the story was okay, but due to fact that I didn't like the art I kinda don't like the overall manga.
