Aiko and Reina have been together for almost 20 years, yet
one thing remains unsaid between them: "Daisuki", or, "I love
you". As they approach their anniversary, their relationship comes to an
impasse as Aiko the Japanese housewife begins demanding "I love you"
with a side of marriage and romance.
But Reina doesn't understand complex concepts like "love" or other heavy emotions. She's spent years supporting her girlfriend via a soul-sucking salary job and tending to their mutual needs in the bedroom. Isn’t that sufficient? In a culture demanding Reina choose between the "feminine" and the "masculine" worlds, it's bad enough she's trying to find her role without Aiko adding extra pressure.

Some words need not saying, but "I love you" is about to destroy a relationship already surviving strange side-lovers and even stranger exploits.
I can't believe it's the first day already! Next day of promotions will be the cover reveal on September 1st! But you may be getting a preview sooner than that...
Actually, soon it'll be September 28th, and I'll realize I have yet to do final edits / convert crap into mobi and epub. Let's be real, this is my life.
Congratulations! I'm excited for you and can't wait to see the cover!
