  妻とは会社設立の為の結婚でも関係はあった
  I had a relationship with my wife even when I got married to set up a company
  この会社社長と従業員の距離は近いのか？企業戦士として憧れていた男性ヒーロージャレッドの家庭的な面まで見せられてはヒロインキャシーでなくてもイチコロでしょう。子育てに無知なジャレッドが、それに長けているキャシーを必要とすることに彼女は喜びそして悩む。彼のプライベートスペースに身を置き、彼のパーソナルスペースの狭さに 本来の夢とは違った希望を持つようになるキャシーの苦悩もよく伝わるが、何よりもジャレッドが、キャシーを便利屋のように使っている事には不誠実さを感じます。結婚を申し込まれてＹＥＳと答える彼女にも違和感は有って、自分の会社を持ちたいというだけの実力がある女性という割に、詰めの甘さが出ていて台無しに感じます。クライマックスシーンでの会話にも感動が欠けていて、「これは愛なのか？」とジャレッドの問いに対して「愛だと思うわ」というキャシーのセリフでは、彼を誘導しているような感じを受けるので、キャシーのセリフを「愛であってほしい」に変えて、彼の口から「これは愛に違いない」と自発を見せてほしかったと思う。

  Is the distance between the president of this company and the employees close? Being shown even the homely side of the male hero Jared, whom he admired as a corporate warrior, would be great even if he wasn't the heroine Cathy. She is delighted and worried that Jared, who is ignorant about raising children, needs Cathy, who is good at it. Cathy's anguish of being in his private space and coming to have different hopes from his original dreams due to the narrowness of his personal space is also often conveyed, but above all else, I feel dishonest about Jared using Cathy like a handyman. There is also a sense of incongruity with the girl who asks for marriage and answers YES, and in spite of being a woman who has the ability to just want to have her own company, the sweetness of the package comes out and it feels ruined. The conversation in the climax scene also lacked emotion, and they asked, “Is this love?” In response to Jared's question, “I think it's love,” I get the feeling that they are guiding him, so I think I changed Cathy's line to “I want it to be love,” and I wanted him to spontaneously show “this must be love” from his mouth.

  最近のヒロインは割り切る
  Are recent heroines divisible
  This review contains spoilers. 今までだと「愛のない結婚は辛すぎる～」と家出してしまうよ。このヒロインが「愛されてない→別れる→彼は他の人と再婚→それはイヤ」みたいにチャート式に物を考える人だったから持ったけど。このヒーロー…きっと前の結婚もこんな感じだったんだろうなー。仕事のための便宜結婚とかいってるけど、子供は作っているわけだし・・・あと双子ちゃんが３歳に見えないのは髪型のせいでは？３歳の子の髪ってあんなにしっかり長くならないように思います。

  This review contains spoilers. Until now, I've run away from home saying “marriage without love is too hard!” I had it because this heroine was someone who thought things like “not loved → break up → he remarried someone else → I don't like that.” this hero... I'm sure his previous marriage was like this too. They say convenience marriage for work, but that's why they're making children... and isn't it because of their hairstyles that the twins don't look 3 years old? I don't think a 3-year-old's hair can grow that long.

  母性系のハーレクイン
  Maternal Harlequin
  ストーリーは↓の方が書いてくださっている通り。突然双子の女の子の父親になったジャレットが子育てに困り、キャシーに母親役を求め結婚。キャシーはジャレットを愛しながらも、愛ではなく母親として求められているのだと悩み………という展開です。キャシーの母性的なあたたかさが素敵な落ち着いた雰囲気のハーレクインで、自家用ジェットとかパーティーとかのゴージャスandセクシー系ではありませんが素敵な一編です。★「君のいない部屋に帰ってきたとき僕は言いようのない寂しさに襲われた。これは愛ーだろうか」「この幸福感をもう少し……」「愛している、キャシー」★目指せハーレクイン100review No.53

  The story is as written by ↓. Jarrett, who suddenly became the father of twin girls, had trouble raising children, and asked Kathy to play the role of mother and got married. The development is that while Cathy loves Jarrett, she is worried that she is being sought as a mother rather than love... It's a Harlequin with Cathy's maternal warmth and a lovely, relaxed atmosphere, and although it's not gorgeous or sexy, like private jets or parties, it's a wonderful story. ★ “When I came back to my room without you, I was struck by an unspeakable sense of loneliness. “Is this love?” “A little more of this happiness...” “I love you, Cathy” ★ Aim for Harlequin 100 Review No. 53
