For the first time, I've found a novel where the heroine is not a pushover. Most of the romance novels I've had read were that of "Cinderella types", damsels-in-distress who needed some prince charming to aid them, coz let's admit - girls are meant to be protected, right? That has been the norm for romance. But in this novel, though the heroine is one who can hold her own, the "prince" here wasn't shaded altogether by the strength of the girl's character, and that was where the charm of this story lies. Our Ning Xi is on equal footing with our Lu Tingxiao, both protecting each other, hand in hand, facing all hindrances together, both strong-willed, but does not clash, instead compliments each other. Both with flaws, but when combined, becomes one perfect couple. This story, amongst all the romance novels out there, is the best read for me. I salute the author for giving birth to this gem of a story, as well as the translators for giving us readers the chance to delve into Ning Xi's and Lu Tingxiao's world. I am enjoying the journey, and I hope the others are too! Best of luck to everyone behind this!
