I think it's アダムの献身 イヴの恍惚 (Adam no Kenshin, Eve no Koukotsu) drawn by Kousaka Tohru. It's a novel by Hinozaki Hitoyo. It was this issue of Novel Links: https://www.gentosha-comics.net/book/b520605.html

Hi again, [I just posted on another of your lists, but] I forgot to ask about the beautiful JUST illustration at the top if this list. (*sobbing with you* It could have been such a great manga!) I was just wondering where you got it from, so that I can add it to my faves. Thanks in advance.

anyway, i had it saved in my album, just scroll down the picture there's a link there that points which manga has this illustration cover.

also, if you are curious, from the drawing i could say that this is a kousaka tohru (of okane ga nai) style. i think she has an artbook uploaded here.
