Review Detail of Lana2022 in Touch of Flame

I’m frustrated by this. Over 100 chapters right now and still very little romance between the two main leads. Maybe this is for you, if you have the patience for incredibly slow burn books. But I can’t keep interested when after so long the female lead is STILL not even slightly interested in the male lead. Enemies-to-lovers books for me are supposed to be full of the tension between the two main characters who WANT each other when they shouldn’t. Here we have a female lead that is entirely cold and indifferent to the male lead. She doesn’t care if he touches or marries another woman, why should I? Don’t get me wrong, it’s well written and realistic, but the romance is taking too long to develop for me. I can appreciate that the author is putting in the effort to not make this insta-love BUT I think she kinda lost the timing and the nuance of how to do that while keeping the readers interested and rooting for the main couple. I also suspect this a strategy to make this plot eternal and have the book reach 800+ chapters… At this point I say let the female lead be happy with the second male lead and let this be done.
