Days of Love at Seagull Villa #1

Kodama Naoko's seaside romance arrives with a cover full of warmth and salt air — two young women sit together against a bright coastal sky, seagulls wheeling overhead, while one of them cradles a small, wide-eyed toddler in a yellow jacket. The easy intimacy of the scene, set against that sparkling blue ocean horizon, instantly suggests a story about unexpected family and the tender connections that grow from it. A lovely start to what promises to be a heartfelt slice-of-life series.
