Say whatever you will about Xavier, but he doesn’t deserve any of what’s happening to him. At the end of the day he’s at fault for not making things clear with Val and betraying her. Val now being with another man is punishment enough for his betrayal. However what’s happening to him now is just too much. Previous few chapters with Rose disgusted me so much, now it seems that her behavior will only continue to get nastier.🤮
Two particular ones that stand out to me are “I Deserve a Second Chance” and Loving You Too Much”. I especially love the first novel I named as it’s more of a slice of life and none of the cliche in which I’ve mentioned before. Neither is it the usual revenge story. The love in that story is so beautiful. While the second is not as unique as the first has a just as a beautiful love, but there’s a bit of drama and scheming involved though not overwhelming so. Anyhow, for the most part both are great feel good reads which align with what you asked me. Do give them a go.
When you put it that way... 🤣🤣
It’s not even about patience. We’re nearly 100 chapters in which generally gives readers a fair amount of time and content to make their own opinions and see the direction in which the story will go. At least that’s how I go about things when making a decision to read further. I understand the saying that things don’t just happen in a day, but in the story how much time has passed in which the “ML” cheated on the MC and got married and the MC saying she’d have him at all cost to she now havIng moved on and giving up on the love she’s had for so many years? A week or two at most? I’m still fairly interested in the outcome of who’ll end up with who, so I’ll check up every now and then, but as of now the current development is disappointing in relation to what I thought this novel was supposed to be about and what the title pertains to.
I initially had some expectation as this is the first novel I’m reading which focuses on the “second woman”, but I’ve been severely disappointed. The title and synopsis may as well be rewritten at this point because the plot seems to be going in the complete opposite direction. Only the initial 50 chapters correlate with the title and synopsis. After that, it’s like the story has diverged into the budding romance of Valentina and Jason. This is turning out to be no different from any other romantic novel where the girl is cheated on and her lover marries another while she having been heartbroken finds a man who loves her, etc. The supposed ML lacks any sort of backbone and and was forced into a marriage where he’s simply being used as a puppet and has no real control over his life. The FL who claims to be deeply love the ML and will get him back at all cost has within the span of a week already moved on and looking to start a relationship with another while stating that she wouldn’t go back to the “ML”. So in what way is this any different from the vast majority of romance novels on this site? Don’t get me wrong, this type of development is perfectly fine and enjoyable to me, but I just feel like I’ve been scammed of the original reason as to why I started reading this in the first place. The factor that hooked me in was taken away from the equation, so my interest has waned.
Really terrible writing on the author’s end. The previous conversation may as well have never happened as it resulted in absolutely nothing at all but leaving us readers frustrated.
