My Thoughts on I Thought My Heart, Which Remained Impervious on the Battlefield, Would Stop When My Fairy-like, Cute Wife Asked for a Divorce. I’ll Grant All Your Wishes, so Please Stay with Me?

Okay, let's dive into this title. It's a mouthful, I know, but the premise is undeniably intriguing: a hardened battlefield veteran brought to his knees by the mere thought of his "fairy-like, cute wife" leaving him. Color me curious!

First Impressions

The sheer length of the title alone prepares you for a certain level of over-the-top drama, and the story largely delivers on that front. It’s a quick read, almost a one-sitting kind of story, and it wastes no time in establishing the core conflict: our stoic male lead is utterly devoted to his wife, who suddenly wants out.

What Works Well

The dynamic between the characters is definitely the strongest point. The male lead's devotion, almost bordering on desperation, is played for both laughs and heartfelt moments. I found the smut scenes to be handled surprisingly well. They didn't feel gratuitous and actually contributed to the story and the characters' connection. Consent is clearly present, and there's an emphasis on the couple's intimacy, which is always a plus in my book. The author also doesn't shy away from proper foreplay, which I really appreciate!

Areas of Concern

While the male lead's protective nature is initially endearing, it does veer into slightly problematic territory. His reluctance to let his wife pursue her own passions, specifically her desire to wield a sword, felt a bit restrictive. Given the fantasy setting where women are clearly capable of fighting, his reasoning felt a little flimsy and rooted in outdated gender roles. I would've loved to see her express herself more, and them come to an understanding.

Final Verdict

Overall, I Thought My Heart, Which Remained Impervious on the Battlefield, Would Stop When My Fairy-like, Cute Wife Asked for a Divorce. I’ll Grant All Your Wishes, so Please Stay with Me? is a fun, albeit slightly flawed, read. It's a quick escape with some steamy scenes and a central relationship that, despite its issues, is undeniably captivating. If you're looking for a lighthearted story with a devoted male lead and a touch of fantasy, this might just be your cup of tea. Just be prepared to roll your eyes a little at some of the more traditional gender dynamics.
