Her determination to succeed and prove the strength of women pushes her to the position of Class President. To lower the cost of tuition, she attends Seika high.where 80% of the student population is male. Her dad was an asshole who walked out on her family and Misaki now has an aversion to men. Some of my favorite scenes in these volumes: usui rescuing misaki from the president at miyabigaoka, usui jumping off the building to get the photo, the sports festival obstacle race! Here you see the development of their relationship and I already know it’s going to progress more in the other volumes and I can’t wait! They’re seriously comfort characters □ I really liked how these volumes set up their relationship! You see how misaki and usui work together more and how they’re such a golden duo. He’s the only one who can keep up with misaki! Every girl has a crush on him and every guy wants to be him. And of course, usui finds out! He’s pretty much perfect and the school heart throb. She has a secret and she works at a maid cafe bc she needs to help support her family. Review on IG: the anime so I started the manga! This is a rivals/enemies to lovers and it’s chefs kiss! Misaki is student council president, she’s good at literally everything she puts her mind to and hates men.

BALANCE is forbidden romance at its finest-a book that both had me questioning my morals, and savoring the ride. I don’t even know where to begin explaining the ride this book took me on. Have you ever finished a book, and felt like kicking yourself because it sat on your TBR pile for so long? Well, that’s me. One toe off the beam and their forbidden desires could ruin everything they’ve worked for, throwing it all off balance. Every interaction can be misconstrued, but there’s no mistaking the darkening of his gaze, the lingering of his touch, or the illicit image of his bare skin pressed against hers. Kova’s power and domination, coupled with Adrianna’s fierce tenacity, reveal there is more for her body to learn. As the relentless pursuit of her dream keeps her striving, a passion is ignited within him. She doesn’t come close to his high standards. When two time Olympian Konstantin Kournakova is persuaded into training the young hopeful, he immediately regrets it. Perfection, precision, and dedication are required of his athletes. Even if that means leaving home to attend World Cup Academy of Gymnastics, a training center that serves one purpose-producing champions. Olympic glory is the ultimate goal, and she’ll do anything to achieve it. Years of pain and determination make her one of the best.

I’ve been lucky lately in finding female narrators I really like. In fact the female narrator Melissa Schwairy would get a 5. Gah! This book is just as good as I remember! Better even! And the narrators were almost perfect. When the alpha who all but destroyed Lola tries to start a game of cat and mouse that’s all claws, the safest place for Lola may be the one she’s most terrified of, in the arms of an alpha pack. If only she could resist their perfect beta, Leo, whose patience and determination to see her heal breaks down one wall after another. And Lola is only a beta, one who comes with deep scars and an unshakeable aversion to alphas and their powerful presences. These alphas are everything Lola dreamed of, but they already have an omega-a playful male model who won’t stop flirting with her. But that’s easier said than done when one stumbling incident after another leads Lola closer to an alluring pack of captivating men. Armed with her dream job and her less than dreamy apartment, Lola is ready to start a new chapter of her life without alphas. No more hiding in her cousin’s apartment licking wounds that won’t heal. No more chasing alphas who abuse and toss away betas like her. Lola Barnes only wants one thing, to get her life under control. |
