"Hey... Let's do it." ...A man and a woman. One single bed. Miss Unhuggable versus Mr. Huggable, the battle has begun...!

Our first meeting in 10 years... and we're hugging each other while naked?! I'm now living under the same roof with my childhood friend who went overseas and came back a very good-looking guy. On my way home from work, I got caught in the rain, so I hurried back to take a bath. That's where Yoshiki, who had been away for 10 years, was taking a shower! Despite the situation, he just said? "It's been so long!" and started to hug me! Yoshiki used to be a shy cry baby who I protected as a younger brother, but now he's a totally different person. He's very friendly, quick to hug, and kisses me while saying? "Let's get married."...Is this what happens to everyone who goes overseas?!

Deborah Hornet is a highly capable young noblewoman working as a secretary in the government. Her fiancé, Carlisle Wingfield, is the son of a duke and one of the assistant ministers. Despite holding an important position, Carlisle and his group of noblemen are essentially useless officials who rely on their family connections rather than actually working. One day, Carlisle storms into the office with another young noblewoman and publicly declares that he is breaking off his engagement with Deborah. Rather than being devastated, Deborah calmly points out that his behavior is inappropriate for the workplace and leaves his punishment to his father. The story then takes a satisfying turn: the supposedly “decorative” person isn't Deborah at all. Carlisle's position and authority are largely meaningless without his family's support, while Deborah proves herself to be genuinely competent and valuable. Her romantic future also takes an unexpected direction, involving Carlisle's father, the Chancellor, an extremely capable older man who turns out to have a connection to Deborah's past. The result is a short, comedic age-gap romance with a very satisfying reversal.

The heroine asks her husband for a divorce, believing that he loves another woman. However, he unexpectedly rejects her request, insisting that he has no intention of divorcing her.

"I'll find happiness on my own terms!" In the kingdom of Francesca, where harsh feudal rule reigns, noble-born Melphina's life has been one misfortune after another. Unloved by her family—and now, even her husband declares he has no intention of loving her. But Melphina doesn't panic. "In that case, I'll live my life however I please!" Wishing for freedom, she negotiates for a remote northern territory and begins rebuilding it using the random knowledge she gained from her past life. Driven by her compassion for the people, her efforts soon begin to change the very fabric of the era. The young lady who would one day be known as the Northern Noblewoman becomes a beacon of hope for all her subjects!

Note: The digital edition only has four of the stories.An all-happy-ending anthology of stories featuring determined young ladies who refuse bend! Manga adpations of stories from Syosetu starring women who are strong in body and mind.Even if your engagement is broken off or your fiancé is chosen without your consent, if you have once loved someone, you can overcome it.Contains five short stories about winning your happiness!Cover art: NitakaContents:"Konyaku Haki wo Tsuki Tsukerareta Koushaku Reijou ga Motomeru Futatsu no Onegai" (婚約破棄を突き付けられた公爵令嬢が求める二つのお願い).
