Goodreads Synopsis:
Kaya thought she had
found the perfect job when she became the private secretary of Kyouhei
Touma - the director of a tableware company of the same name. Kyouhei is
a capable director, but his arrogance and sluttish behavior are almost
legendary. Kaya is doing her best to prove that she is capable in her
work, but one night, by accident, she discovers his secret... of him
being a vampire!
Review:
The first chapter
or two of this volume was much like that last few: not very good. It just
hasn’t been making me want to read it. I almost even put off buying this
volume.
I think the main reason was that I was just not feeling the
relationship between the characters. Nothing big was happening between them, it
seemed like they both knew Kyohei’s feelings and yet neither were doing
anything about it, and their chemistry had just disappeared. At one point in
this volume, I was even wondering why Kaya likes him. He was just showing
absolutely no likeable characteristics, he wasn’t being nice to her or even
welcoming, and yet she was following loyally behind him. It was starting to
drive me insane.
But about halfway
through the volume, they were finally taking a step forward. Their romance was
finally admitted to, Kyohei finally bucked up to his feelings, and even did it publicly. I was finally feeling their relationship, their chemistry, again.
It was almost a relief, I was so happy.
Now it seems like
they get to become more comfortable romantically with each other, which I look
forward. The vampire community, and Kyohei’s family, is what seems to be the
next problems. There are only a couple volumes left, so I look forward to
seeing how the series ends.
