So this starts strong and then drags. At first I was 100% obsessed and in love with it, totally hooked. I am partial to difficult or tragic and sad beginnings then overcoming those roots and leading to happy stories. This certainly starts that way, FL is horribly depressed, she has given up and just wants to be left the F alone. Turns out being left alone is hard when you are very high status and people suddenly want to make up for their past behavior. Her family treated her like utter tr*sh. Some try to change but she can’t forgive them. But as they stick to her like glue it’s uncomfortable to see the interactions and they don’t fit very well. If someone is super crazy smart and just now after many years figures out what’s going on? And the other one is so dumb his treatment over the years doesn’t make sense to begin with.I think ML is the dukes son, I hope so. He is very sweet and caring. Not perfect but that’s far more realistic. Prince is also in the running but I hope she does not end up with him, the position would be bad for her. She is to fragile.Pacing is really the biggest problem, but the story still is unique, characters are written with depth. Translation is great. I will pick it up again when it’s done being translated.
