Description
From DMP:
After leading anything but a fashionable collegiate life, Kaitani is entering his third year at a major cosmetics company. His boss is the Adonis, Fujiwara. Although any number of women have had their eyes on Fujiwara, Kaitani can't think of him as anything but an ill-mannered snob. Word around the office is that Fujiwara keeps his clothes on even when making love! Things start to heat up when the two clash over a marketing campaign for a new line of men's cosmetics.

I agree that this novel is funny, but I got rather disturbed by the black mailing thing. Especially when Fujiwara had that kind of reason to why he...looked that way.

To those who say that this novel is the worst thing evaah, it isn't. I've read alot worse. Although I couldn't take the plot seriously enough to consider this as being really good, I thought it was pretty okay. The story was like I said funny, and you didn't get bored with the characters. That's the most important thing in my opinion.

Not so great

This novel is not the worst I''ve read, but honestly I didn't feel it as strong as the other readers. The background wasn't anything new, just an office romance and how many aren't out there? As for the characters I don't know if to say they were complex or just inconsistent. Up until the actual sex scene I didn't know which one would end as the seme, because their personalities kept bouncing from strong and confident to pathetic. Kaitani was a jerk, I really didn't like him. Fijiwara was developded a little better, but towards the end he kinda went down the drain as well. He was so set on verifying facts and basing every decision on strong evidence, but he just broke up with Kaitani based on some office rumour.
Well, these were my complaints, though I wouldn't reread it, the story wasn't a complete waste of time, but don't start it unless you don't have anything better on hand or just want to relax with a very light read.

I thought it was a great novel. I liked the characters (they were likable!) and I thought it was pretty funny at times. A very fast read as well. But if you were to read this for the illustrations I suggest you read something else. It didn't have plenty of them, but they weren't really needed.

I'd have to say, if you're going to pick out a yaoi novel anytime soon-it's gotta be this one.
While there aren't many out there anyways, this book is sure to give you good laughs and thrills. Excellent writing from Narise Konohara again!

I thought the first chapter was hilarious. haha. It was well written -even though it was translated. But somehow.... the second chapter (first page) doesn't seem as interesting as the first chapter......

it's not a manga, it's a novel. the few illustrations don't qualify it as such.

i wrote a long, scathing review of this on amazon and my pissy attitude hasn't worn off yet, but i'll make it short: nobody in this novel is likeable, and the protagonist's behaviour makes him go from "what a whiner" to "toss him in jail and let starfish (-> under grand hotel) show him the ropes" in my book. and maybe it's the translation, but konohara's writing seems even worse to me than the average harlequin romance auhor's.
