I’m looking for a story where the main character and the love interest have a strong relationship. Would be great if it doesn’t take more than 50 chapters for them to realize their love, but I’m pretty lenient with this. They don’t have to stick together all the time. Plus point if there's any kind of conflict/tragedy between them. The romance itself doesn't have to be the center of the story. If it's completed, please be a happy ending. I would prefer something with solid plot, not just some guy/girl flaunting his OP powers for no good reason. No harem or NTR please. Mature themes are fine. Preferably if there's no love triangle or anything like that too. Previous crushes/love are OK, as long as it doesn't negatively impact the relationship too much. JP/CN/KR/Western published/Original, any is fine. My reading list is a mess, so I'm not going to make it public. I just recently started reading novels again, so even if it's something that I've read before, I might be interested in re-reading it. A good example and my personal favorite would be Kazuki and Maria from Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria. The Wolf Lord’s Lady and One Life, One Incarnation Beautiful Bones are pretty good too. This isn't a novel, but Estelle and Joshua from Trails in the Sky series is also good.
Eight Treasures Trousseau Hidden Marriage Those are the only ones I can think of at the top of my head Even though there's way more...

It's on my forever gonna read list since 2014, I've never ever touch any page of it... how many hours to read Maria??
Akuyaku Reijo Ni Koi Wo Shite The novel hasn’t finished but it doesn’t have any harem of a sort and is interesting
yep, as I thought, Maria is a story that needs time, oh well I'm just gonna collect any books until I got bored of Sevens
I forgot the name of one, but it was kinda like Diary of a self proclaimed villianess.(Maybe worded different.) Cute story of a prince watching a transmigrated girl doing weird and funny stuff to stick with the plot of the story. HeroxMaou. Another cute story of a hero who fell for the cuteness of a demon Lord. Transmigrated meets Reincarnator, everything points that it will be a sappy and nice love story though the begining isn't anything romantic at all but funny because the silly stuff the Reincarnated guy thinks and do.
