Those Not-So-Sweet Boys 1



A DEBT OWED

Midori drops her wallet on her first day of high school, but her new classmate Rei swoops in to help. She wants to thank him, but he's part of a tight-knit trio and none of them are ever in class! Rumor has it that they all got expelled for acting up, and studious Midori's actually at risk of expulsion, too... In order to help support her family, she has a part-time job, which is against the school rules. When the chairman of the school board catches her leaving work, he says he'll let it go--but only if she's up to the task of bringing the three boys back to class. Well, why not? It'll be a piece of cake...right?

From the creator of That Wolf-Boy Is Mine! and Love in Focus comes a story of a hard-working high schooler who falls for a bad boy, and discovers that the the lives of him and his friends are nothing like what she imagined. Don't miss Yoko Nogiri's newest shojo hit!
