Sound of the Desert is similar to Eternal Love in that:
-Female lead is in love with someone else first.
-Male Lead is completely in love with her and is super open about it. Affectionate, wicked, naughty.
-Second female lead is super hateful, although in SotD the second female is not in love with the male lead.
-Passionate kisses, although in both the romance takes a while to start.
-There's no magic or fantasy in SotD
-The male leads always wear black.
-Overall the romance gives the same vibe.
-There are a few more similarities but I feel they would be spoilers.

Boss & Me got me started on my love for Mainland dramas which lead to finding Xianxa through Zao Zanilia's Journey of Flower through to Eternal Love.
Both dramas feature male leads who are powerful and cold to start of with but when they fell for the female lead they never deviated. Ye Hua and Feng Teng were the definition of 'Laser-focused'... there wasn't even a hint of a chance for the female love rivals (not that I felt at all sorry for either)
They both acknowledge the romance and couple up very early on, none of this dragging out will they-won't-they business and work through their problems with varying degrees of maturity and success. Both happy endings too. You will fall for both dramas OTPs like a ten-ton brick.
Fabulous chemistry and solid acting. Yang Mi and Zhao Zanilia are both adorable and beautiful and most importantly THEY CAN ACT. Mark Chao is also specially amazing.
Those put off by CGI don't be, its inconsequential and the plot and characters will be what you care about. I've got to say though EL had better cast of characters (It seems like there are hundreds but I loved all of them) than Boss & Me. I watched both dramas twice each now and will probably watch EL again in the near future.

The Flame's Daughter and Eternal Love (TMOPB) give off the same vibes. Both are fantasy dramas with elements of romance. In TMOPB almost all cast are immortals and in Flame's Daughter, Yin Xue is Immortal. They both have evil tribes fighting for power. All the supporting cast of TMOPB are there in Flame's Daughter. So, feeling a bit nostalgic? Go ahead and watch this new series.
