I have lost count of the number of times I find myself coming back to this novel. It's a pleasant read, without all the unbearable details that many others have. The is a small misunderstanding but it is resolved quite early on and isn't really much of a problem later on. Super cute. Great introduction to Korean light novel, especially if you like smut (who doesn't, honestly). The translation is complete now but I really want to give the translator a shout out for her speed and smooth translation.

The very first korean light novel I have read. And I was absolutely thrilled in reading it. Loved the steamy scenes between Hugh and Lucia. ADORED the different side stories.

I don't really prefer reading some light novels because they were written using the first POV and I am not really into reading those kinds of stories recently. So I was really happy when reading Lucia because it uses the third POV writing. This was really worth the 3 days of binge reading.

PLEASE! FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS LOVEABLE AND AMAZING! READ THIS NOVEL! ? I am so glad to have started reading the novel after the manhua. The manhua cuts the level of intimacy down so much compared to the novel. ? The novel is way more stimulating than the manhua.

Even if you question the way that Hugh acts, if you think of the setting as if it was in Medieval/Middle Ages (with a bit of fantasy elements mixed in), his actions don't seem as hideous.

It's probably because it's the firat translated novel that I read so I am biased but I really love how uncomplicated this story is. It's mostly straightforward and it's the perfect story to read if you want a light read and smut (though it tends to be too much so I mostly skip it when I am to deep in the story).

I am so thankful to be able to finish this incredible novel. Loving the comic from kakaopage in my country and the story is satisfying.

If you like passionate romance and smut, you will absolutely like Lucia. I love strong Female lead but so what with the complain here about the dominating Duke? Everyone can have bad trait and can change eventually. I have no idea that every female lead should not be admissive in the bed? Smh

I love this absolutely. The most suspenseful arc is I think when ... more>>

The story was clearly very carefully thought out by the author and as a result, the ending is by far one of the most satisfying I've ever read. Though it's more or less what you would expect with this variety of romance, Lucia is still one of the best in its class. (Psst, my favourite character is Damian!)

Good evening! I read this story like a mad women, I loved every part of it. Even the very smutty scenes, I just really like Lucia as a character. The story has everything u can enjoy about a k drama. I really recommend this to anyone who likes drama and romance, with a little smut. Peace out!

I loved reading this as it became one of the best novels I have ever read. Each character has shown a character development from beginning to end. The MC and the ML has shown each other respect and love that made me cheering with tears of joy. NOT A LOT OF MISCOMMUNICATIONS :D

I also really love that there are no plot holes and every little detail told in the beginning are not forgotten towards the end. I am going to miss reading this novel and I would reread it a... more>> bunch of times just to see their love again. <<less

Just finished reading this novel. First of all, thank you so much to Ruby Maybe Translations for all your hard work! I really enjoyed reading your TNs at the end of the chapters!

I love this novel so much! The smut is just so... MUAHH *chef's kiss* It's also really sweet and heart warming and I really adore the unconditional love between Hugh and Vivian. Damian is also swoon-worthy. Evangeline is such a sweetheart. I just love their family so much TT_TT

Most amazing romance novel I've read! It makes u laugh, makes u cry, and learn as well. ? ? No plot holes. An amazing journey.

I bet you that you wont find any other novel that will have such a good plot, loveable characters and damn (long) sexy smut scenes with romance.

I loved every sentence of it!

the story plot has holes but all in all the novel is great. Lucia and Hugo's love are so adorable. Reread this over again and I love how the side stories conclude the ending of each one of the characters.

I really enjoyed reading this. There are a lot of smutty scenes, so you can enjoy them or ignore them.

I liked how the protagonist was able to stay strong and level-headed even when she was going through emotional turmoil. The relationship between the couple was rough at first but I really loved it when they finally acknowledged their feelings. Overall, there wasn't that much drama, and the ending was resolved very well.

Although their were some plot holes, they are relatively easy to overlook and the author does their best to... more>> resolve all of the readers' unanswered questions in the side stories.

I would recommend this novel for those who are looking for something that is not very dramatic and not that long. I thought it was very fluffy and enjoyable. <<less

Lucia was a super fun read. The smut was pretty repetitive but thats to be expected from any novel.
