I am likely to get flack for this review for a few reasons one of which has to do with the author being great etc. However, a review is someone's opinion on something be it good, fair or bad so here goes. I do not give review for review sake and usually give my input after 10 to 15 chapters to be fair. In essence, I do not like this story. Where is the FL, who or what is she? The reason I'm saying this is because after reading all these chapters I feel like she is a puppet who does all these things for people, manipulated and is mistreated constantly even if she supposedly defends herself a little, she still seems like an idiot. To make matters more interesting, you now have a ML that has the ability to take possession of her body and mind. As such I am not liking the story much, I do not care for any of the characters at all, I sped read chapters so far within a hour. I kept looking for the FL and am not seeing her, nor do I care for a ML who has the ability to control someone neither do I like him. With said ability, it does not speak to balance at all in a relationship. Then you have the typical tropes throughout, with abuse and mistreatment of FL courtesy of her leeching family, famously wonderful boyfriend who cheats on her with the white lotus sister; omnipotent cold beyond handsome ML who is obsessed with FL because she "calms" him with all afraid of him, lacks originality, entertainment field and I question what is the age of these characters etc. etc. As I bet they range from 18-25 with a beyond amount life experience, manipulative, naive, beyond saintly FL, boastful, arrogant, scheming personalities. If I'm missing something, let me know. One thing is sure, this story will not have a long shelf life in my library, I'll go up to chapter 50 and after that if I see no change its bye bye Lifetime Bliss, there is none for me here.

upvoted your review so more people could see this. imo, although i agree with your reviews for the most parts, while reading other reviews i believe that other people are reading this story because 1). the author who wrote Hidden Marriage 2). for the fluff, MC's OPness. i can kinda see how the author tries to switch things up a little by giving this story a super natural feel but it's kinda a flop because author keeps using the same tropes that she used to write her other stories. where a few tropes are namely: 1. MC is good at everything without rhyme or reason or effort 2. white lotus leeches 3. huge underestimating of MC followed by faceslapping (i guess you can't faceslap people unless there's underestimating so MC is underestimated of her abilities and capabilities everywhere she goes even though she follows the golden rule of the MC halo by being naturally good at everything she tries to do). 4. ML being all powerful business conglomerate that everyone fears, uneven temperament that only MC could cure. 5. amnesia etc these reasons above among many others were why i found this novel extremely predictable, lowkey annoying, and boring to read

What happens in reality? U mean an op ml, bitchy fam, underestimated fl or wat exactly. The person is trying to point out the used same tropes by the author. This site needs originality ur attitude isn't helping that.

Happen in reality HAHAHAHAHHA. You're just making excuses dear. If you can't see that these stories are just recycles of FMHM then are you even trying to understand the plot?

I was glad to read your review because I too was having difficulty with the plot and MCs. I love her first novel, but this story was confusing me.
