    Trigger Warning
    This review contains spoilers. Everything is very noncon/dubcon in this. The FL is "accidentally" r*ped by her future brother in law while he's drunk - FL doesn't seem to see it that way tho bc she's secretly in love with him. The encounter is never talked about by FL so no family or friends knows what happened.

    She's then blackm*iled into a noncon "relationship" with an ex-hookup turned stalker who's in a relationship with her close friend.

    She leaves to study abroad and when she gets back to Japan she's then blackm*iled by her new boss who was her previous fwb - seems like it was one sided love on his part. She never told him about her study abroad plans and just ghosted him before leaving the county. The new job is the reason she moved back to Japan in the first place but turns out it was a scheme orchestrated by ex-fwb/new boss to get FL back in his control.

    I read thru all the available chapters (5 or 6 at this point) hoping it would move away from the noncon/dubcon stuff but seems it's going to be an ongoing plot device which is not for me

You can't hold on to the past forever!
We've all been there, heartbreak, unrequited love, and some of us may carry this with us forward. Nanao is portrayed fairly realistically and I really feel for her. She just can't catch a break and she really fits the bill of hurt people, but this will have you rooting for her to confront her past and truama to finally find happiness.
