Business Yakuza have to balance a turf war, deadly politics and their love for each other in the racy new yaoi A Gentleman’s Kiss! It has criminal overlords, backroom double dealing and true love with shady rivals all in this first volume! Homura doesn’t look like your typical Yakuza. He’s the business man type, where the deals are just as deadly and at greater costs! With his smooth business suit looks, dark hair, and steel gaze behind his glasses, he’s the heir to one of the most powerful Yakuza organizations. The problem is that he’s in love with the heir to their chief rival! Touji is fair, handsome and just as ruthless and both want to take the other’s heart prisoner! Talk about your love in dangerous times! If either of their parties learn that these two have been seeing each other they’ll be swimmin’ with the fishes in no time! They have to be cautious, keeping their relationship a secret. That gets thrown a nasty wrench in the works when one of Homura’s employees finds out about the couple and uses it for extortion! He insists that Homura has to date him or else he’ll spill the beans - that little rat! But Kyoya might not be all bad. It seems he’s in a tough situation himself due to his family and in his own way is trying to do well. It’s just something about Homura that brings out the bad in this boy! When Touji sees them together it’s all green eyed monster time. This can’t be good for anyone because Touji isn’t just a regular jealous guy – he’s Yakuza and has his own way of dealing with obstacles! Next thing you know, just to make it even harder for the couple, one of them ascends to his rightful place as head of the clan and it means bad news for this Romeo and Juliet! A yaoi love story Yakuza style – what could be better! More scrumptious? The men are handsome, the romance dangerous, and the drama skipping into a bit of suspense. Plus there’s a bonus story about how these two powerful men first met and decided to possess each other utterly! It’s a love that won’t be denied!
IN SUMMARY:
It’s a yaoi West Side Story in this romance between two men from rival Yakuza clans! |
