Romantic and Sweet August 13, 2008 C. L. Moran (Mixco, Gt, Gt) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Well the story is basically about a boy who goes to England to study theater, he meets a prostitute who is the only person that helps him, one day his friend the prostitute gets really sick and gives him the mission of delivering a ring to a person who she calls "god", however she ends dying, On the other side of the country an aristocrat young man lives his life spending all the money that his parents left him drinking, however there is a condition for him to get all of his inheritance and is that he needs to get married before turning 26, in order to do so he needs to give to his future fiancee a ring, turns out that he gave out his ring to a prostitute, so with the help of his journalist friend they decide to go look for the prostitute that has his ring and make a deal for a fake marriage, He meets with Satsuki (Japanese boy that calls himself May because everyone in England has problems pronouncing his name, satsuki is the old way to say may in Japanese) finds out that Brenda the prostitute is dead and decides to make the deal with Satsuki, who ends up accepting because was having financial problems.
**** So this a very common story, you already know how is it going to end, but even so it doesn't make it any boring, is really entertaining, the art is really great, and you get to know about the aristocracy in England, I do recommend it for someone who is looking for a story full of romance, not too many strong scenes, however a rape scene is included. So if you have spare money and you are a yaoi fan this is a must in your collection,
