I'm honestly stunned that there aren't any reviews for this series, so I felt like I had to add one.
This is a basic slow-burn romance between a middle-aged man and his work subordinate. The romance progresses slowly, but the plot never feels slow -- the actual events of the story are well paced and fall into line with the heightening tension.

Luckily, this BL avoids the common use of non-consensual stuff. It also is a different read than the usual high school or college ones, these are just two normal middle-aged men. I'd recommend this if you like slow-burners, but if you don't then this might bore you as the chapters do seem longer, averaging about 40 pages each.
The art fits the story well, and is pretty decent for a bl. The characters aren't fleshed out that much, but for a short BL it's not too much of a con. If you're reading this for mostly explicit content, then this isn't the right one for you ... Jun 2, 2025
