Description
When Seung-ha was 21 years old, love was everything to him. That’s why he poured all his wealth into trying to catch even a bit of Ahn Jae’s attention. But one day, Seung-ha learned that love wasn’t everything, and silently left Ahn Jae. Seven years later. The two coincidentally meet in their respective social positions. Ahn Jae wouldn’t even look at Seung-ha unless money was involved in the past, and now he’s become obsessed with Seung-ha. However, Seung-ha’s heart, long since burned out and reduced to ashes, remained cold…. * Ahn Jae whispered, barely louder than a breath “Let me kiss you.” Seung-ha’s eyes wavered, but quickly settled. “No.” “I know, you’re not for sale.” Ahn Jae’s hand slid from Seung-ha’s face to his nape. The large hand cradled Seung-ha’s neck, fingers threading through his hair. A faint shiver ran through Seung-ha’s body. “Ahn Jae sunbae.” “Then let me do it.” His eyes lowered to Seung-ha’s lips. Desire showed in his downcast eyes. Seung-ha forcefully held back the urge to swallow. “You sound like you’re begging.” “That’s right, I am begging.” Despite his gentle words, his grip on the back of Seung-ha’s neck tightened. Then, his face drew closer. ‘Seung-ha,’ he whispered his name heatedly as their lips touched.

My Thoughts on Not For Sale
"Not For Sale" certainly lives up to its mature rating, delving into some pretty thorny relationship dynamics. It's a story that grabbed my attention, though not always for the healthiest of reasons. This novel isn't your typical fluffy romance, and if you're looking for pure, unadulterated sweetness, you might want to steer clear.
First Impressions
The initial setup is… intense, to say the least. The premise revolves around a contract, and the power imbalance is palpable. This isn't a story that shies away from exploring potentially toxic behaviors, and that's evident right from the start. It's a novel that demands you confront uncomfortable themes and question the characters' choices.
What Works Well
One of the most compelling aspects of "Not For Sale" is its flawed characters. The male lead is far from perfect, and honestly, I found that refreshing. He's self-centered at times, and his actions definitely have consequences. The story doesn't try to paint him as a saint, and that makes him feel more human, more relatable, despite his questionable decisions. The novel also tackles the evolution of feelings, showing a gradual shift in the characters' perspectives.
Areas of Concern
The toxicity is a major factor in this story. The relationship between the MC and ML is far from healthy, and I think it's important for readers to be aware of that going in. The ML's behavior, in particular, can be quite problematic, and some readers might find it difficult to stomach. The power dynamics are also unsettling at times, and the novel does not shy away from depicting those uncomfortable scenarios.

Final Verdict
"Not For Sale" is a complex and challenging read. It's not for everyone, and it certainly has its flaws. However, if you're looking for a story that explores the darker side of love and obsession, with flawed characters and a healthy dose of drama, then this might be worth checking out. Just be prepared to confront some uncomfortable themes along the way. I would give it a 3 out of 5.
