Kiko's manga / #Beautiful Art(72)

I liked this one immediately because it has such a great ML (detective) and his unrequited love for his best female friend and the 2nd ML who is in love with her future husband. I loved the way the ML falls and hard for the guy who he meets at the wedding, who he finds out that he's in love with the husband! The the detective falls for a guy who is so beautiful and yet a guy!! I've bought the French mature ones because you need the intimate scenes for the full effect ;)!

Worth every minute. Hard start with blood and violence but smooths out with love and beauty - a gem! Probably want to own it in PPB, too.

I'm really enjoying this one. The love/hate friendship when they were young apprentices, the discovery of their physical intimacy, and now their adult need to be together despite their "enemy" status works beautifully together. I look forward to the rest ...

Wow .... what a great love story. Great premise with the life coach angle and the role reversal at the end. Love the drawing style, too.

Despite it being of the traditional flowy, long hair always waving in the non-existent wind, Chinese style, I plowed through this one after starting it on tappas. I simply loved it. The ML was reincarnated into an ancient emperor from a popular present day novel and keeps trying to steer the story back to its original plot despite the fact that he's the one falling in love with the 2nd ML, another deposed then brought back to current emperor! The illustrations were glorious and the story pace never slows down. I was saddened when his first stint as emperor ends in tragedy but was happy to see him reincarnated as an almost identical self as a king! Even the flash forward to the present CEO with all the side characters who had died back in his life was sweet.

This was a fun read with ML, who is a young chef, running away to a B&B in a beach town only to be pursued by several of the workers. He develops mutual feelings for a fellow local which ends with them together and living together. Some side/back stories were interwoven well and interesting. Fun, good read.

A bit dramatic in terms of backstories, the ending made up for some of the length. I plowed through this one to get to the admission of love and kiss, which didn't come until ch. 75 out of 79 chapters!! Oh and even then, censored b/c it's C manhua!! But it was funny in some parts and the 2MLs together at the end was great.

Man, I don't know what it is about sport themed yaoi but I'm hooked! This was great - love the perfect ice skater and swimmer bods, too. Lovely story about friends with benefits eventually becoming a family.

A little taboo and somewhat risque... love between a father figure (by relationship only - not blood) and his "son" in a gangster environment. I'm actually liking it a lot b/c it is so off-the-beaten-path. We shall see...

At first I hesitated b/c of the kidnapping and collar but Wow, with the telling and heart warming back story, this was a super fun and seggsy read!
