Description
“They say you shouldn’t disturb a dog when it’s eating. So why do I feel like being a dog?” When she silently blinked at him in confusion, he merely gestured with his chin and murmured, ‘Hurry up and eat.’ “It’s because I keep wanting to crawl underneath the table and lick you there.” Unlike her, who suddenly stiffened completely, he had a relaxed expression on his face. Her cheeks flushed as she mulled over his words. She tried to pretend it didn’t bother her, but she failed. She grabbed the cup and gulped down the water. “You weren’t this kind of person before.” She spoke as she placed the cup back on the table. He shrugged. “You made me this way. It can’t be helped.” Although she didn’t want to admit it, the haughty smile on his lips was so attractive. And the voice that flowed out of those lips… “You’re the only one who makes me like this.” “If it wasn’t you and it was someone else…” Lowering himself from the chair, he knelt on the floor. Then he went on all fours and began to crawl over to her. “I wouldn’t do something like this.”

My Thoughts on Unexpected
"Unexpected" promised a rollercoaster of emotions, and while it delivered on some fronts, it left me wanting more in others. This josei romance dives into the life of ChaYoung, whose carefully constructed world crumbles after a betrayal. Enter KunHyung, a chaebol heir who throws a wrench into her recovery with his unexpected pursuit. The premise is intriguing, and I found myself quickly drawn into ChaYoung's story, eager to see how she navigates this new chapter.
First Impressions
The initial chapters definitely hooked me. I was desperate to know what happened and how ChaYoung would pick up the pieces. The introduction of KunHyung adds an element of mystery; his motivations are unclear, and I was invested in uncovering his true intentions. The story is easy to get into, and I can understand why many readers might find it addicting.
What Works Well
The subtle revenge aspect is a refreshing take on the genre. Instead of over-the-top theatrics, ChaYoung's strength lies in her quiet resilience. The romance itself is a slow burn, a steady journey with its share of bumps, which I personally found quite appealing. It's not a whirlwind of passion, but a more grounded connection that develops over time. The author builds a believable world with complex family dynamics and wealthy characters that felt well-integrated into the story.
Areas of Concern
While the story kept me engaged, I felt there were areas where the writing could have been stronger. I wanted a deeper dive into the characters' emotions, especially during pivotal moments. Some emotional beats felt rushed, leaving me a bit disconnected. Additionally, certain plot points felt like they were introduced for convenience and then forgotten, which was a little jarring. The leads also struggle with communication, and while it can be a source of angst, it can also be frustrating if not handled well.
Final Verdict
Overall, "Unexpected" is an enjoyable read, perfect for passing the time. If you're looking for a fluffy romance with a touch of angst and a strong female lead, this might be right up your alley. However, if you prefer stories with deeply explored emotions and airtight plots, you might find yourself wanting a bit more. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.
