by Chokam, Cheong-Gwa, Cha-Cha Kim
When six-year-old Inés laid eyes on the handsome heir to House Escalante, she promptly made the boy her fiancé. Since noble men are all the same, she figured she might as well choose a pretty one. But Lord Cárcel isn't ready for this sort of commitment just yet, and he spends the next decade and a half avoiding the marriage at all costs! Luckily, that's no trouble for Inés, as this marriage failing is exactly what she wants. In fact, he has her blessing to sow his wild oats as long as he stays out of her business. Unfortunately, being a playboy isn't as fun when your fiancée gives you permission. And doesn't this mean she's cheating on him too? Now, Cárcel is determined to change Inés' mind about him and prove he can be the husband she's always wanted.

Read the full take
The Broken Ring: This Marriage Will Fail Anyway begins with a childhood decision that refuses to age well. A six-year-old settles on her future husband, the handsome heir to a house, and a decade and a half later he is still avoiding the wedding. The premise is dryly comic, and it puts an unusual self-possession at the centre of the story.The lead is the best part. Her composure and wit make the arrangement feel more like a negotiation than a romance, and the long-strip layout gives the scenes room to breathe. The tone is drier than most noble-marriage stories.The drawbacks are the adult cast and the marriage politics, which can feel heavy, and the arrangement itself asks for some suspension of disbelief. Readers who enjoy cool-headed, unconventional marriage stories will find this distinctive. Those expecting a warm romance may find it cold, though the wry humour keeps it engaging.
