Fated NOT to Meet is a steamy, enemies-to-lovers Boys Love romance from creator Ei Eijo that proves fate has a wicked sense of humor. Published under TOKYOPOP's LoveLove imprint, this 18+ series delivers workplace rivalry, anonymous online connection, and the chaos that erupts when your perfect match turns out to be the person you hate most.

 

Izumi has it all—excellent grades, good looks, top sales numbers, and the adoration of every woman in the office. He was untouchable. The best. The golden boy.

 

Then Sendo arrived and took everything.

 

Now Sendo holds the top spot Izumi worked so hard to earn, and Izumi can't stand him. The guy is cold, unlikable, insufferable—and somehow, maddeningly successful. Their rivalry is legendary.

 

When a friend recruits Izumi to be a plant on a gay dating app, he agrees on one condition: he'll never actually meet anyone in person. It's just pretend. Just helping out. No real risk.

 

But then he connects with "Kei."

 

Their conversations are easy. Natural. Izumi finds himself opening up in ways he never expected. The temptation to meet becomes irresistible. After all, what's the harm? It's not like they'd actually have to date...

 

Then "Kei" turns out to be Sendo.

 

And what Sendo has in mind isn't exactly dating.

 

Fated NOT to Meet is the BL rom-com where fate says "absolutely not"—and the chemistry says "absolutely yes."

 

Perfect for readers who love: Boys Love, enemies-to-lovers, workplace rivalry, online dating mishaps, secret identity reveals, steamy mature content.

Izumi, the sales ace with excellent grades, good looks and great communication skills, has someone he absolutely cannot lose to.

His name is Sendo, the most unlikable man who took the top spot from Izumi.

Izumi was the top salesman and fan favorite amongst the girls in the office... that is, until Sendo came along.

When a friend recruits him to be a plant for a gay dating app, Izumi agrees, so long as he never has to meet anyone in person. But when he makes a connection with "Kei", the temptation to meet his new friend becomes irresistible. After all, even if they meet, it's not like they actually have to start dating... right?!

Well, turns out "Kei" is none other than Izumi's rival, Sendo! Moreover, what Sendo has in mind for Izumi isn't exactly "dating," and the intense pleasure that awaits them both might just be worth defying fate.
