Number Call
From the creator of My Summer of You comes a new high school romance about the power of numbers, and how the number 8 draws two young men together–the author’s Japanese debut, now available for the first time in English!
High schooler Eito Tachibana has always hated his name, including all of the jokes and puns about the number 8 that have come along with it. One day, he meets a classmate named Tomoya Hatta, aka Hachi–the Japanese word for “8.” What begins as casual greetings and small talk in the hallway soon becomes something much deeper, and Eito realizes that it’s more than just a similar nickname that draws him to Hachi. Could the number that Eito resented for so long finally bring him something–or someone–to love?

Title Notes:
Nagisa Furuya’s English debut, My Summer of You, quickly became a fan favorite for readers of BL—who will no doubt return to read the author’s latest series in English.
The author’s debut work in Japanese, now available for the first time in English.
Full of the pathos and naturalism that have helped so many other BL/yaoi romance series sell in the past few years, among them My Summer of You, Seven Days, Given, and I Hear the Sunspot.
A low-pressure, sweet romance between two likeable characters is a pleasant escape from troubling times for readers teenage and older.
