Melinda Beasi appreciated the leads' "warm and consensual" relationship,but felt that the most interesting parts of the story were poorly developed. [2] Rachel Bentham enjoyed the art style. [3] Leroy Dessaroux found the story to be strongly reminiscent of a traditional romance novel. [4] Patricia Beard disliked the characterisation,feeling that the characters were too much like "BL paper dolls",and disliking the softening of the villain,recommending Ishimaru's Total Surrender over Love/Knot.
