MAME-Athon 2023: Day 6

Love in the Air, Love Storm and Love Sky are complete!

I am still utterly obsessed with these stories, and I would love to see another season of both Love in the Air and Wedding Plan. I enjoy MAME and her stories, but I wish the translations in the book had been better, but I enjoyed it so much and can see myself re-reading the books as much as I re-watch the series.

On to the next book/series Love By Chance the Series and book! I have not actually seen or read this book but have been wanting to for a while now so when better to read/watch than during the MAME-Athon.

Book:

Love by Chance: My Accidental Love is You

“Pete is a handsome and rich university student that is incredibly timid. His shyness is caused by the fact that he tries to hide that he is secretly gay. By chance, Pete gets hit by a kind-hearted boy on a bike. The boy, named Ae apologizes and helps him up. Whenever Pete trusts someone they use him for his wealth. While he was getting bullied for money, Ae saves him. Over time, Ae protects Pete from the world; he takes care of him. But somewhere between the intense closeness and soft touches, Ae begins to feel more than how a friend would. Yet, Pete doesn’t want Ae to know the pain of being ridiculed for dating a man. Thus he ignores his feelings for Ae. But Pete falls deeper and deeper in love with the kind-hearted boy on the bike who once hit him, by chance.

Series: You can find it on Viki and iQIYI.

Love by Chance

An incredibly timid freshman, Pete has found adjusting to university life to be a bit more challenging than he anticipated. Because of his good looks and his wealth, Pete has always been approached by those interested in him, but time and experience has taught him that letting people in only leads to heartache; a fact that becomes even more apparent once people learn that he is gay. Now using his shyness as a means of self-preservation, Pete does all he can to keep people out, thereby protecting himself from the cruelty of others.

But everything changes the day an accident causes Ae to come crashing into Pete’s life. A freshman from the Engineering School, Ae is a kindhearted soul who is always willing to help those in need. When Ae learns Pete is being blackmailed by his ex, he steps in, saving Pete from his ex’s constant torment. Drawn to Ae’s kindness, Pete can’t help but fall for his gentle-natured friend. But Pete knows only too well, how painful life can be when you don’t conform to society’s norms; so he suppresses his feelings, hoping that in so doing, he can spare his new friend from the ridicule of others.

Unbeknownst to Pete, Ae has begun to reciprocate his friend’s feelings. Drawn to Pete’s kindness and endearing innocence, Ae knows his heart belongs to his friend, but how can he admit his feelings without jeopardizing their friendship? 

I am so excited to get started and I think it shouldn’t take too long but we will see because I don’t actually know how many pages are in the book and start the series.
