The Duke's Son Claims He Won't Love Me Yet Showers Me with Adoration Manga Reviews

Okay, I picked this up thinking it would be your typical cold-male-lead romance, but wow—this story is adorably frustrating in the best way.

The male lead insists he won’t fall in love, yet he’s constantly doing the most sweet, overprotective, and downright affectionate things. It’s like watching a tsundere prince lose a battle he doesn’t even realize he’s fighting. Meanwhile, the heroine is lovable, patient, and smart—she doesn’t just sit around waiting; she holds her own.

The banter is fun, the romantic tension is top-tier, and honestly, I’m hooked on seeing how long he can keep pretending he’s “not in love.” Spoiler: he absolutely is.
