(Great story. So much better than Vol. 1.)    
(have to read this if u love Yaoi)     The cover artwork kept me away from this series for a very long time...I'm glad I finally gave them a chance. Although there's less smut than I usually prefer, the story lines more than make up for it.
The characters are fully fleshed out and very evolved. Each story draws you in like a good romance should.
Volume 2 tells the story of Aoe-San and Naoya. Aoe reluctantly rescues poor Naoya from an incredibly tragic life and the romance begins.
Don't be like me and miss out on a wonderfully entertaining story just because you "judged a book by it's cover"! I enjoy Reiji's and Naoya's story immensely, which is much more than just a "man-meet-boy" love story. Surprisingly Reiji and Naoya is a compatible couple, and to have Reiji, the tough guy, treating Naoya so "sweetly" does provide touching yet comical moments. Reiji was introduced in Vol 1 and for me, this interesting character outshone the 2 protagonists in Vol 1. Vol 2 featuring Reiji finding his love is simply a delightful read. Shimizu is amazing, expressing Reiji's and Naoya's feelings for each other so well that I do not mind the missing explicit sex scenes between the couple. Hopefully these will happen soon in this series. I have to admit I was not too impressed with Vol 1 but Vol 2 changes my mind completely. I now understand why Love Mode is a popular long running Yaoi series in Japan. Looking forward to Vol 3 which should be just as good as it concentrates on another interesting character who seems to have a tormented past. If u have read book 1 then trust me. Book 2 is MUCH MUCH better. It introduct the 2 main character and the best couple in the book. With Takamiya and Izumi off having fun, what’s B&B owner Aoe Reiji supposed to do except take matters into his own hands? His gay escort business is booming but a man needs more than money to keep him warm on cold winter nights. After leaving his cheating girlfriend, Reiji's life changes dramatically when he takes in Naoya, a cute high school boy with a troubled past. Will the two of them put aside their stubborn bickering long enough to realize just how much they need each other? Between this budding romance and sizzling Christmas Eve fireworks between Takamiya and Izumi, the passion is really heating up! Rerations < Love Mode, Vol. 2 (Love Mode) >

(The Best!!!)    
(Deeply emotional Yaoi series! Love it.)     The entire Love Mode series is beyond sweet, and Love Mode Vol. 3 is no exception. Plus, the short story in the end is to die for. I highly recommend it! This is one of my favorite series ever! This latest volume, three, didn't let me down. It just keeps getting better and better. I can hardly wait to get the next one! This Yaoi series is a gem. Vol 3 focuses on Izumi (B&B no. 1 host, not the younger school kid Izumi) finding love and happiness and is fittingly titled Sanctuary. Izumi's story is heart wrenching and laced with angst and emotions, certain scenes bringing lumps to my throat. We are told of this beautiful host's tragic and tormented past and the rape scenes which left scars on Izumi are painful to read. It is nice to have Kiichi (Reiji's elder quirky doctor brother) plays a significant role here, helping the vulnerable Izumi finds his way. Izumi is paired with a younger student, Arashi. Arashi is an immensely likable seme, with a maturity and understanding beyond his age. His family and background could not have been more different from Izumi's. As I do not favor sad stories, Vol 3 is not an easy read. Fortunately it ends on a happy note and I hope there is happier times for Izumi in future volumes, like the ready acceptance of Arashi's family?. This mangaka's artwork may not be the best out there but her deeply emotional stories and individually appealing characters simply make this series shine. There is a bonus story on Reiji and Naoya spending the new year in Reiji's family home with a surprisingly nice revelation of Kiichi's lover (Hope this couple has their own story). Here the aloof Reiji continues to show his affection for Naoya and one feels the mangaka is teasing her readers with their still innocent love. Yup, Reiji has not made Naoya his yet! This short bonus story is a delightful contrast to the heavier and deeply emotional "Sanctuary". Definitely looking forward to Vol 4 which switches back to Reiji and Naoya, the most likable couple in this series. Now that Izumi has found happiness with Takamiya, it's time for the other "Izumi" to do the same. Blue Boy's number one hasn't--been doing too well lately. But with his health improving, it may be time for him to find a love all his own. His chance may come when a young man named Arashi moves in next door. Will Izumi be able to find true love and bury the pain in his heart? The passion is flaming hot in this next volume of Love Mode! Rerations < Love Mode: Vol. 3 >
