Yaoi fans prepare yourself for a manga that’s too hold to hold! From the mangaka who gifted yaoi fans with Affair and Play Boy Blues, I’m Not Your Steppin’ Stone is an all new story about a clueless young construction worker and the devious lothario taking advantage of him. It’s sizzling!

Kazuya, a buff construction worker with little education, fell in love with a woman who prefers highly educated types. For help, he asks the woman’s younger brother, the cool, smooth dark haired and intense Masashi for help. The man quickly agrees to tutor Kazuya…for a price! Soon Masashi is learning all kinds of things and they have nothing to do with the three “Rs”!  When all is said and done, will Kazuya still go for the girl, or has he found a whole new subject he’d like to master?

This manga is pure erotica yaoi style. It is sex, hot and heavy in pretty much every chapter. These two have sex first and love later as misunderstandings happen, rivals enter the picture (first there’s Masashi’s classmate Saitou and then one of Kazuya’s work buddies gets frisky), and then the two have one very heated argument after another. They’re like fire and ice, with the temperamental and clueless jock type Kazuya being the fire, and tall, serious and calculating Masashi as the ice.

The art work is so hot this manga needs ice cubes! It has some of the raciest, raunchiest stuff I’ve seen in a yaoi. The guys are more butch than average (no girly men in this yaoi!) and the sex scenes are thick in more ways than one! Plus the manga has a full color cover page too! 

IN SUMMARY:
I’m Not Your Steppin’ Stone is hot, hot, hot! It’s racy, it’s erotic and a titillating read!
