Summary:

A voice actor out of the closet. A boyfriend in the tabloids. Can their love survive the trappings of fame?

Aoi is more comfortable in the recording studio than in the limelight. But when his boyfriend persuades him to come out on national TV, he skyrockets from D-list adult voice actor to gay icon. Caught in a whirlwind of fame, Aoi worries the wear and tear will be too much for his vocal cords—and his heartstrings—to handle.

Sato is a diehard fan of geek culture and his dreamy boyfriend. So when Aoi’s newfound star power gives him a chance to voice a favorite anime character, Sato’s over the moon. But after doctors diagnose Aoi with a career-threatening throat condition, Sato doesn’t know which is worse—the relentless rumor mill or his crushing guilt for pushing the man he loves to the brink of ruin.

In the midst of a media frenzy and medical emergencies, can Aoi and Sato’s love survive, or will it be silenced forever?

Year Three is a heartwarming gay romance with a unique Japanese setting. If you like steamy chemistry, Japanese anime culture, and emotional journeys of overcoming the odds, then you'll adore Amy Tasukada’s pitch-perfect slice-of-life anthology collection.

Summary: One of them has a plan. The other is clueless. Together they will discover what love really is about. Guarded and studious, sixteen-year-old aspiring actor Zak favours being alone above all else… except perhaps Alberto, the Italian god from Drama Club, with whom he’s secretly in love. When their drama teacher takes the club to the French countryside to shoot a short film, Zak decides to temporarily hang his introvert hat and joins the party, confident Alberto will be cast as his love interest. Only… by accident or by mistake, the beloved — and most likely overrated — star football player Eric is chosen to play Alberto’s part. As time goes by, stuck in the middle of nowhere with the most popular boy at school, Zak quickly sees his opinion of Eric shift from sworn enemy to endearing new friend; and soon enough, his feelings for him threaten to grow into something far more dangerous. A story about friendship, self-awareness and the dangers of appearances, You're The One for Me is the second instalment in the Colette International series, where students from an international high school in Paris navigate their tumultuous love lives. Each of the Colette books can be read as standalones, apart from He Looks So Fine Part One and Two. Warning: this novel is 170 000 words long. It's a slow burn of a summer romance, written for readers who enjoy slice of life entertainment with plenty of dialogue.
