Synopsis

An unexpected encounter drew two students, Ren and Shinobu, to each other. Opposites attract. Friendship ensues. Feelings grow. Will they remain together in spite of their differences?

"You're either nuts or stupid."
"Actually, I'm neither. But you're just being difficult."
"That's what I do, you idiot."
"Well, being sociable is what I do."
Shinobu laughed out loud after a dead beat of silence. Ren was astonished. It was a nice sound, low and almost husky.
Why in the name of god did he think that?

[Note: It is the first novel in a loosely connected trilogy: 1. Devotion 2. Capture 3. Love Is]
