Description
Romance and manga becomes one in Harlequin Manga!
After suffering gruesome injuries from an accident, Jacqui wants a new identity so she can start her life over again. Plastic surgery gives her a new face, and she gives herself a new name—Brooke. As Jacqui, she fell in love with her husband, Rafe, and he promised to love her forever. But she found herself in a miserable marriage to a high-class tyrant, and it wasn’t long before Jacqui was cast out of his estate, surrounded by nothing but bad rumors about her marriage. Now, as Brooke, Jacqui sneaks into her ex-husband’s life just to see her dearest son once more.

Featured Reviews

This is a really good story with lots of drama, but unlike some of these manga romances, the drama actually feels realistic. This is no idealistic romance because the couple have a difficult marriage with a lack of communication, and problems from the past which haunt them in the present. The two of them are unable to overcome their problems and it leads to the breakdown of their relationship. That part of the story is just so sad, but it helps knowing that there will be a happy resolution.
Of course the accident that Jacquie was in and her subsequent new face and identity, is a bit dramatic, but it makes the story all the more interesting because the reader knows about the secret.
Knowing that the big reveal is yet to come made the story all the more gripping for me.
I really enjoyed this story and I think it's because the story feels a bit like soap. I could imagine this particular story being televised with lots of dramatic music shouting, emotion, tears and passion. And as with all Harlequin Manga stories the artwork is lovely and the small child is adorable with lovely big eyes.
I must admit I cannot resist these romantic mangas. They are very entertaining and they bring the romance and the story to life in quite a dramatic way. This one I think is possibly one of my favorites.
These are the kind of books that are just so great for winter because you can snuggle up in bed with them and lose yourself in the passion, the pain, the tension, drama and romantic moments all captured in great artwork.
