A Suitable Fetish #1

Shin Kawamaru kicks off this mature romance manga with a cover that sets the tone immediately — a blushing blonde woman sits in the lap of a tall, bespectacled man in a vest and red tie, her legs wrapped in a trailing red ribbon while she holds open a book. The charged, playful tension between the two figures is rendered with Kawamaru's clean, expressive line work, making this first volume from Seven Seas Entertainment a visually arresting introduction to the series. Romance fans looking for something a little more daring on their 2024 reading list will find this opening volume hard to pass up.
