Description: Kaoru Hanabishi, a lonely good-hearted college boy, who has cut ties with his father'sKaoru Hanabishi, a lonely good-hearted college boy, who has cut ties with his father's family had a "normal" college life living by himself. Now all of that quiet life shattered when he meet a pretty young girl, Aoi Sakuraba, lost in a train station. She is on her way to meet somebody in his town and much to his surprise, Aoi is actually looking for him!

After much flirtations and right out confession of being engaged when they were kids, Kaoru grown attraction to his new found fiancee, along with it, some mature urgings. Then he finds out Aoi ran away from her current arranged marriage and the only way for him to be with her is to either go back to his estranged family, or Aoi to leave hers.

To answer your question, YES! As the front cover shows, this graphic novel IS for 18-SX mature readers, due to the available mature scenes and adult humor only 18+ could actually understand. The artwork is beautiful and dialogs are engaging as well as funny. Plots are simple. I had an awesome time reading this one. ...

Description: I must admit, the reason why I found myself being attracted to this book was the illustrationI must admit, the reason why I found myself being attracted to this book was the illustration on the front cover. Who wouldn’t be curious about somebody carrying a dressed pig?

The story is about two witches, Dora and Heckie, who happened to be bestfriends since they attended the school of magic, only to fall out over a pair of identical hats, (which are made from real live snakes). Nevertheless, both of these witches continue trying to go good in the world by punishing bad people. The plots are fast moving but leaning more to the adventures of Heckie, who has this wonderful dragworm as a familiar and young children as friends, one particularly she loved dearly as he was her very own son.

As much as the characters grabbed you in their fast moving plots, I rather find it pretty short. The last plot was kind of catchy and full of suspense, since it involved a man named Lionel Knacksap, who exploited Heckie into doing whatever he wanted her to do, you would pretty much would like to read the ending for this particular plot. However, I pretty much enjoy the book as something to past the time with.

Description: This is pretty cute steamy book filled with angst and snappish attitude between the two mainThis is pretty cute steamy book filled with angst and snappish attitude between the two main characters. A definite page turner for me and I actually stayed up reading this one (which is rare for me when it comes to Harlequin books)

This features Samantha Brewster, a wild modern minded woman, who was set up for a blind date with Demetrios Karas in one of Samantha's sisters' party, but never did meet each other properly, leaving a whole set of problems throughout the book. Samantha was a translater and ironic part is Demetrios was in need of a skilled translater for a business transaction. From where Samantha saw it, Demetrios was trying to own her entire life. Gotta love the sexual tension they had for each other plus so much ego and pride in all the wrong places in this book. ...
