Cineraria, the daughter of the Marquis Dorneia, is only eighteen years old and has already had her engagement broken off three times. The reasons are obvious. Her frumpy appearance, extreme shyness around strangers, oversized glasses, and outdated dresses were altogether the kind of look that would make her the laughingstock of high society the moment she appeared. Then a fourth marriage proposal arrives. And the suitor is none other than the Duke of Browmines, head of the kingdom’s most prestigious noble house, second only to the royal family in power…!? “If not for obligation, we never would have met. But I don’t want us to face each other behind our public façades.” Through their engagement, two awkward and timid souls slowly confront the things they’re worst at, learning to overcome their insecurities together. A shy, heart-fluttering romantic comedy about two people clumsily growing closer as they face their fears! https://www.cmoa.jp/title/344879/
