Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #Ogeretsu Tanaka(2)

Reading about the quietly reserved Taichi and the sociable extrovert Nao was a wonderful way to spend an evening. Starting when these ex lovers meet each other again at uni, the author surprised me by giving them the maturity to decide to be friends again. That gave the opportunity to have some flashbacks and you start to realise that Taichi never stopped loving the bubbly Nao. I loved that quiet yearning he showed, and then as Nao started falling for his friend again and the two had sex, there was enough sexual tension between the two to make that a satisfyingly hot read. I enjoyed all the story because both guys obviously adored each other, but that doesn’t mean things are easy. They had adjustments to make for each other, arguments to resolve, communication problems to sort out and then planning for their future; all while working, studying and spending time with some of the best friends I have come across in a yaoi. I especially loved the girls, how the mangaka made them so likeable and such good friends. But most of all, even when things were tough, I really appreciated the love between the 2 MCs that was challenged, but never in doubt.

Such a surprisingly adorable story! Both characters were irresistible in their own way with the short yet tough and feisty uke and the 190cm tall seme who adores him (and manages that temper incredibly well!).
