User Reviews For: Bad Boy -Night of the Scattered Pearls-

Well written romance here, with a woman trying to balance her desires with the need to find security in a long term relationship. The heroine here is a deeply passionate woman who is involved with a gentle, steady man. At the same time, she indulges her desires in secret online in secret, because she is willing to trade emotional fulfillment for stability and security. Then she meets a man who sets fire to her body and heart, but offers none of that security. The story is written with nuance and the focus is on the heroine's internal growth and not on external drama. The art is a big clunky, especially in body shots, but still appealing. Unusual for a lot of manga, the male lead looks manly, with features and body that are hearty. This an adult romance where compromise can bring security, but taking a leap off the expected path can give life richness and satisfaction.
