Summary: All Arisa wanted was to go overseas for the summer, but instead she found herself roped into an Omiai with the heir to the Narimiya Corporation. She doesn’t want to be involved in this and is trying to find a way out, but Narimiya has decided that he wants to marry her - and actually has the romantic skills and determination to win her heart!
Review: I didn’t realize this was going to be so smutty. LOL I thought it would be the typical shoujo, but thus far, there’s smut in every chapter. Twenty year old Arisa gets pressured into an omiai w/ a stranger, so she tries to manipulate it so that the guy will dump her right away. Things don’t turn out the way she’s planned and she ends up in bed w/ him instead.
There’s not much character build up, and mostly just centers around the couple have sex which is not too different from a lot of BLs. It’s nice to have an older couple as the lead instead of the typical blushing virgin teenagers. In any case, it’s got nice smut scenes geared for female readers that don’t have rape, S&M, or other strange fetishes.
