FMC is a 27 year old who lives paycheck to paycheck because all she wants is to spend money on a game about her bias. She's an otaku and proud, in debt because of a sleazebag ex. Then she ends up in an arranged marriage meeting with her company's VP. He's notoriously strict but also super handsome. They end up married and he's like the ideal house husband and funds her life, WHAT MORE CAN A WOMAN WANT.
Cute moments: He jumps into water to save her phone, he cooks for her, the TEASING, ending kiss!...more
I just have five words for this: what the fuck just happened?
I don't know what to think, who to believe, or how to feel. I'm just C O N F U S E D.

Amnesia plots are tricky when we're just as clueless as the main character who lost their memories. I can't say this one is executed very well, but I'm still compelled to read because Rina.
Plot: FMC gets hit in the head and wakes up in a hospital room. She's told her name, age, and that she's engaged but doesn't remember ANYTHING. Turns out she's the heiress to some real estate mogul, is Queen B(itch) at school, and was cruel af. MMC is her fiancé who hates her. Used to go to school at Oxford but returned. He calls her a monster but can see she's clearly a different person.
Characters: -Reina: I think I like her for the most part. Bleeding hearts are hard to dislike. -Asher: Is hot. The more of a dick the MMC is, the more I want him. I don't make the rules. He has a quiet, resentful possessive streak I enjoy. -Everyone else is inconsequential.
Theory: Reina is a twin? Alex is evil? I don't even know.
The Aiden King mention made me squeal though!...more
Take a shot each time Naomi and Sebastian say the word "depraved", you'll suffer from alcohol poisoning in no time.
OkaYeah idk about this one, folks.

Okay, I did not like that this kept telling me that their relationship was toxic and their sex was kinky and depraved or whatever. We CAN ALL SEE THAT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME OR REPEAT IT SO MANY TIMES.
And Sebastian referring to himself as the beast gave me the ick. AND I STILL DON'T LIKE HIM CALLING HER TSUNDERE.
I honestly think my main issue with this is the writing lol. Other than that, I think Bastian and Nao are interesting enough characters. The way this went from highschool bully romance to a yakuza cheating situation was a choice decision, but entertaining at least.
Let's be honest, I really wanted to love this because Asian FMC, but this missed the mark for me.
