Yes, No, or Maybe? (Novel) Vol. 03 – Where Home Is
LEAN ON ME
Newscaster Kei and animator Ushio have been dating for nearly two years, and whenever Kei’s in trouble, Ushio’s always there for him. So, of course, when rumors swirl about Kei’s (nonexistent!) political plans, Ushio helps him weather the storm. But Kei’s starting to realize he’s not the only one who could use a shoulder to lean on. What is Ushio hiding? Why hasn’t he gotten any work lately? Isn’t it Kei’s turn to help?
Series Overview: Kunieda Kei is the up-and-coming Prince Charming of the evening news. Inside, he’s the opposite: brash, hot-tempered, and prickly as can be. For years, Kei has successfully juggled his private and professional personas—until a chance meeting with a stop motion animator threatens to bring it all crashing down. But is that really as frightening as the possibility that someone might love and accept both sides of who he is?
