The only good things are season 1 is ok and then in season 2, Baran (Baris Baktas) whose acting is quite sublime. The story gets old overtime due to the lies by some characters particularly Dilan in the storyline. Crazy story of family trying to kill each other and revenge from whatever. Quite exhausting and the lead actress is acting so poorly she is like a wood. I cannot go on watching it. No plans of rewatching or finishing the series even.

Found this show on Youtube unexpectedly due to the long holidays. Myyy was I in an unexpected surprise. This series is hands down amazing. Not your typical turkish drama where writers create the lead female character all simpy, and foolish trying to do silly things (IMHO) without any logical thought (Dolunay, Kiraz Mevsimi, Bay Yanilis etc) - to each his own. Arranged marriage trope yes but the beauty is in the process and the story. Never bored and no need for comedic scenes either. It does not get tiring. I never felt the need to skip scenes and episodes unlike other turk series (Yemin, Dolunay, Kiralik Ask). Asli is great, a surgeon, straigtforward but kind and good. Ferhat is brilliant. Both lead actors/actress are a breath of fresh air. Great in showing the emotions needed at the moment for their characters. Superb acting. Great story about dealing with our own demons, choices, and the consequences to the life we want to lead. Just brilliant overall. The best so far and something i will repeatedly watch in the future. Highly recommended.
