Book 2 - Dean and Rosie
I'm starting to realize when it comes to this series, Shen is a master of making the reader hate the MMC (and possibly the FMC) and then flips it around with a devastating backstory for the main characters. It's almost like emotional manipulation. As someone who accidentally started with Broken Knight (and stopped there for the All Saint's High series), I can see why the fans felt betrayed after reading Dean and Rosie's story.
They're set up as a typical, meet eyes and become star-crossed lovers but with a expedited timeline due to Rosie's CF. Even STILL, he wastes ELEVEN YEARS to get with her. While reading and being all up in the emotions, especially at the hospital, I definitely leaked a tear or two. But then I let it sit for a moment and realized how ridiculous this is. If he really wanted her, he would've gone to her YEARS before Vicious ever bumped into Emilia again.
Also, her family is annoying AF.
