So I read this and thought the storyline was interesting and it was. It's cute her deceased husband leaves her in charge of a cafe with three handsome workers and nothing to do. Since they are all orphans she is the tie that completes the family until she falls for one. Its kind of harem kinda not. I thought the character development wasn't very in depth and I wanted to know more. The Widow was not one of my fave female characters by a longshot and honestly she got on my nerves. but overall it was an ok read. the art was nice(mainly why Ikept reading) but there are def. better mangas out there to read. hope this helps i didn't wanna spoil anything and k.i.s.

I really liked the idea of this manga and the story itself. It was very cute and I liked that her deceased husband was a good guy. I wish there was a little more information on him or even a proper scene with him (maybe a flashback?), I think it would have added a lot more– like why did he marry her in the first place? They mentioned that it was probably because he couldn't leave her alone, but there must be more to it, the gap in the age was big and I would have loved to have heard more from his perspective thanwhat we got.

I thought the manga was well thought-out but there definitely could have been more development happening in the characters and their relationships but it was JUST enough that it wasn't terribly rushed, but it wasn't enough in that it felt a bit superficial, skimming the surfaces of each character and doing the bare minimum to grow a relationship. I also thought the female lead was a bit of a cry baby and slightly dramatic, she could've been written better..

It sounds like I have a lot of criticism about this manga, but in truth it was only because It was an enjoyable read (some parts had me laughing out loud!!) and I just KNOW it could have been better if the author was able to expand more and created a stronger MC instead of a weak one.

ALSO I really needed more than what they provided in the epilogue scene!! c;

This was a very enjoyable read. Technically, it can be classified as a harem, but it certainly defies the connotations of that genre. The romantic development between the the protagonist and her love interest is very straight-forward. The secondary male characters really don't show any romantic interest in the heroine. The characters are developed beyond the expected cliches, but their backgrounds don't detract from the overall story. The art is not stunning, but it's not bad either. There aren't a bunch of fancy backgrounds or stylish clothes, but the character designs are distinct. I really like the simplicity and honesty of thismanga. The story and characters feel very genuine.

I was greatly impressed by the fact that this manga didn't end when the romance reached it's climax! The mangaka took time to fully close the story and to give each character an appropriate ending.

There isn't anything spectacular about this manga. Still, it is well done and very pleasant.
