Goodreads Synopsis:
A poignant story of love and atonement in the afterworld.
Calen, the new reaper in Limbo, develops feelings for his purehearted caretaker, Makoto. But can love flourish in a place where even existence can be fleeting?
New reaper Calen has spent many a peaceful day with his friend and lover Makoto, protecting the people of Limbo. But one day, the time for Makoto’s father, Seishin, to be reincarnated comes. With him gone, the power sustaining Makoto—who is nothing more than an animated clay doll—will cease to exist. With his precious love’s dissolution looming, will Calen find a solution or be forced to watch as his lover returns to dust?
Review:
Calen and Makoto are settling in comfortably together, despite
knowing the potential future ending, up until they're given a due
date. This forces Calen to go on an adventure, on a mission to find
the solution for Makoto's problem.
This reveals an interesting issue that the underworld has been
ignoring/hiding, and that Calen gets to help with in the future. It's
an interesting solution for Makoto, too; it's a bit odd but makes
sense.
Aside from the serious matters in this volume, it was still a lot of
fun. The characters are fun, including the side characters. I like
the chemistry between our main couple, and there's some nice steamy
scenes mixed in, as well. This was a really nice little series, with
a nice ending, not rushed at all. Just sweet and steamy, with a nice afterlife plot thrown in.
