I adored this oh my gosh. The marriage for money was kind of a generic plot, but the Arabian vibes and the pretty boys in this were incredible. This is so intriguing and so romantic already, I"m already dying for the next instalment. I'm also weak for royalty and heir drama.

After rescuing a stranger, a girl who is just trying to keep her family out of debt is proposed to.... apparently the stranger she saved is a Sheikh. He offers to help her family and in return she will marry him, and so begins the married life between a highschool girl and the second prince.

Ok, honestly. 2.5 star rating, maybe full 3 stars if I turn off my brain for a while. This manga is super exaggerated and over the top, and just from the cover and title you can see it reproduces some "problematic tropes" very common in Harlequin novels (which the author even mentions in a note lol). But I guess it's the usual "rich handsome prince falls in love with common girl" that we could find in lots of places. So it's not That bad.

Sanagi needs money for her family because of debts, she helps the prince while working as a hotel maid, and of course he proposes to her after falling in love at first sight. The whole "exotic arabian prince" thing is... terrible honestly, and the terrible overused "evil queen" trope just made it worse.

But it's so ridiculous it ends up being Fun, once you... forget everything else. And turn off your brain. And process the prince is actually just 17, thank God, because the main character Sanagi looks like she could be in middle school (which is just the art, really, because she thinks enough like a teen and shows her care for others and grown-up thinking - at least with money - through the chapters).

While I don't think I'll be continuing this series, I think for people who are looking for a quick, OTT romance where nothing is very unexpected, it can be fun!

This is a super fun read. It is a shojo with a Cinderella vibe. Snagit is a high schooler who works multiple jobs in order to provide for her family. One day, while working she runs into a mysterious foreigner and helps him out in a bind. Unknowingly, she makes a lasting impression on him and when he finds her again he proposes marriage and offers to help her family out. This was a great start for this manga series and after finishing the first volume I can't wait till we get another one!

The art was just gorgeous and cute but yeah the plot is just your “run of the mill” high school girl/royalty quickie romance. It shows a girl saving a prince from harm, prince then shows up unannounced to her school, forces her to marry him, marriage is interrupted, kidnaps her to his country, has a group of other “hot” guys who fall for her and undoubtedly marries the prince in the end .

Yeah not my cup of tea tbh but thanks Netgalley and Kodansha for giving me the first volume!
