  記憶が戻るまでは。表題通り。
  until my memory comes back. As the title suggests.
  冒頭から俺様目線で破廉恥なこんな男との物語にガッカリと意気消沈して読んでいたのだけれど、真実が分かるまでの我慢が振り子のように行動に現れていたのですね。禄でもない弟フェリペという男。弟とはいえ家族だから許していたラファエル。目の前に現れた弟の話とは真逆な女性セリーナに心を奪われた。子供トニオに対しても母親らしさを発揮し、女性としても魅力的でも、弟曰くアバズレ。自宅に住まわせ、日々セリーナを観察するに募る愛しさは、彼女の中にある失われた記憶という爆弾に脅かされている。そんな表題通りの展開がモヤモヤとイライラを読み手に抱かせて進んでいく。けれど、記憶が戻った時、期待通りの真実にラファエルも私も嬉しくなった。良かった良かった。いとしさの行方は失った記憶次第、というのは腑に落ちない部分もあるが、過去によって人格形成がされるのだから致し方あるまい。それでも、記憶の無い彼女の行動も彼女なのだから、過去は水に流して２人の未来を築けばよいという男らしい潔さも見たかったと思う。下司な弟の所業がきっかけの出会いとはいえ、とんでもない回り道だった。

  From the beginning, I was disappointed and demoralized by the story with such a disgraceful man from my point of view, but my patience until I understood the truth showed up in my actions like a pendulum. A man named Felipe, a younger brother who isn't even good. Even though he was a younger brother, Raphael was forgiving because he was a family member. I was captivated by Serena, a woman who was the exact opposite of her brother's story that appeared right in front of me. She shows her motherhood even when it comes to her child Tonio, and even though she is attractive as a woman, her younger brother says it's ridiculous. The love that comes from having them live at home and observe Serena every day is threatened by the bomb called lost memories within her. As the title suggests, the development progresses with confusion and frustration in the reader. However, when my memory came back, both Rafael and I were happy with the truth as expected. That's good, that's good. There is also a part that doesn't make sense that the whereabouts of goodness depends on lost memories, but since personality is formed by the past, there is no way to do it. Even so, since her behavior, which she has no memory, is also her, I think I wanted to see the manly purity of being able to pour the past into the water and build a future for the two of them. Although the encounter was triggered by the work of my younger brother, who was my junior manager, it was a ridiculous detour.

  子どもの頃から
  Since I was a child
  好きな作家さんの作品なので、読んでいるだけで、懐かしい感満載。可愛らしくて綺麗なイラストが好きです。 ハーレクインのストーリーに合っていると思うので、読みやすいです。
