The chemistry worked😎

[Katherine · Rating 4 out of 5]

A far improved outing from the last book, the relationship between the two married is much more developed this time. Not only do the two need to learn to be with and around each other, they also have to make some confessions about previous and future feelings. They also learn to work with each other through the challenges of what it essentially an arranged marriage that can never be acknowledged, but may actually be appreciated. It is complicated but I feel it is well done in this volume. The side stories were also interesting, though the third one the least so.

Much better than the prequel. The relationship has a much stronger development and more emotional impact. Again, the side stories are very blah and make for unnecessary padding, with another shota-esque, way to femme uke in one of them.

[Tin Cheung · Rating 4 out of 5]

There is one main storyline about a newly married couple, who work through their jealousy and feelings for one another. Also, there are two short stories about two separate couples.

[Tabatha · Rating 3 out of 5]

I would have rated both this and the prequel higher without the side stories.

[Eric · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is written like snippets of this young couples life as they fall in love.

[Kathleen · Rating 3 out of 5]

I liked the first book better! The couple in this one don't seem to understand each other or get along quite as well.

3.5

I do so enjoy Hoshino's artwork and story telling. It's not for everyone and that's okay.

3.5 stars

[Raven · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really liked this story. It was a fun little quick read.

[Daesy · Rating 4 out of 5]

The first story is a continuation of one of the oneshots in the other volume, and i liked it. The other oneshots, some were nice, others a bit boring, but none of them was so good to be mentioned.

[Roclaf Alter -Ego · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book should be 2.5 stars. The main story is OK but the side stories are boring.
