Title: A Proper Wife
Author: Sandra Marton & Chikae Ide
Genre: Manga
Rating: *****
Review: So, the synopsis of this books sounds amazing: Devon had every reason to strike the man at the fashion show, but she was still fired for it. And after all, she had done to become a model! Depressed and beaten, she receives an invitation from the patriarch of an enormously wealthy family, one she knows well. Devon’s mother had already betrayed the family, so why would they call for her now? Well, it seems the patriarch is determined that Devon should marry his grandson, Ryan, the very same man from the show.
Usually, in these kinds of stories, the romance is everything and we get very little else, however, A Proper Wife has tons of backstory and history between the characters. It has so much of this that the romance element of the story takes a real back seat until right at the very end of the story where Devon and Ryan come together at last.
While this review is very short, I can honestly say this is one of my favourite Harlequin mangas to date and I am definitely considering picking up the original novel to check out how it compares to this sweet story.
