Akatsuki Kibikino may be a celebrated novelist, but putting his feelings into words has always been a struggle. Kaneishi’s blatant advances toward Fumi put Akatsuki in the foulest mood—that much is obvious. The reason he’s bothered by the thought of Fumi liking someone else, however, continues to elude him...That is, until there is an unexpected confession from Fumi at the summer festival! With her feelings finally out in the open, how will he respond?

Fumi Oono, second-year high-school student. Stuck with the debts of her father, she needs a job—fast. While she did indeed manage to find one as a housekeeper for THE Akatsuki Kibikino, it leaves much to be desired. After all, the novelist has a mean glare and an even worse attitude...And on top of that, she has to live with him?!

Summer vacation arrives with Fumi’s heart still in turmoil. Despite this, she accompanies Akatsuki and his editor Gorou on a trip to Kyoto—but when Gorou suddenly has to leave, Fumi winds up alone with the object of her affections!

Fumi has finally realized how she feels about Akatsuki—only to be met with a rival for his affections! Sure, she may have shared some tender moments with him, but how is she to compete with Katsura, an adept working woman determined to snag the handsome and inexplicably popular author? Not to mention, Katsura seems to have quite the lead already, being knowledgeable in both Japanese and the Kibikino family history. Still, if Akatsuki is willing to give Fumi a kiss on the forehead (in public!), that means she has a fighting chance...right?

After Fumi gets dragged into the cultural festival’s beauty pageant, she finds a silver lining in the handsome upperclassman Eito Kuratsuki—a guy who, despite his popularity, has his fair share of love troubles. But when a disgruntled Akatsuki catches the two walking home together, Fumi is horrified he might take it the wrong way! With feelings stirring between Yoh and Isshin as well, this cultural festival is bound to be one to remember! This volume also contains a side story for Mika Yamamori’s previous work, Daytime Shooting Star!

When Fumi started her job as the live-in housekeeper for acclaimed and very crabby author Akatsuki Kibikino, she never thought in a million years that she’d get along with him...yet here she is, heart fluttering at every tiny gesture! But she’s got no time to dwell on what it could all mean—with her dad out of commission despite the loan looming over his head and the new kid at school treating her like a gopher, Fumi’s got more than enough on her plate already!

Akatsuki finally responds to Fumi’s confession-by asking her out! Will Fumi’s heart be able to handle it as the two navigate the ups and downs of their new relationship?

Fumi, desperate to work things out with Akatsuki, admits to him her most heartfelt thoughts. In response, Akatsuki puts his feelings for Fumi into words too. It seems like their happiest days are finally ahead of them!
