I enjoyed this story because the main characters were strong and loving individuals that bumbled their way to happiness. Much like an awkward couple that stumbles in the beginning but ends with a harmonious waltz.
In Marry in Scandal I hurt for Lily’s mistreatment by her father and fellow students due to inability to read. As a child, I too had difficulty with reading and was humiliated by classmates and a few teachers, so it rang those old bells. This issue was use against her by a very disturbed and jealous former classmate. Lily was rescued from a cruel kidnapping plot by Edward that just has been in the right place at the right time. His inner voice was telling him the opposite of what he wanted to feel so he too avoided revealing his real feelings because he believed he was not worthy of them.
I found myself relating to both Lily and Edward, they both sang love songs that also resonates true for me.
