Romance is in the air, and TOKYOPOP’s got just what you’re looking for. With shoujo, josei, girls love, boys love and more, our LOVELOVE line has something for everyone!
Devoted office worker Sakura Yuino has been transferred to work under a new supervisor: the handsome, gentlemanly Tatsuki Kiritani. From the outside, the two of them seem very put-together — but they’re both hiding troublesome personal issues. Sakura has a scent fetish, and Tatsuki can’t be around women without… getting aroused.
To help him out, dedicated subordinate Sakura proposes "special training" to help Tatsuki get over his issues with women (bonus: she can indulge her scent kink). What could possibly go wrong?
"If you can handle the spiciness, We Can’t Do [Just] Plain Love offers up complicated and sometimes kinky office romance [...] If you’ve been looking for something that’s “not just plain love,” then this series might be just what you need to read next."— Ilgın Side Soysal, The Comics Beat

Once a child prodigy pianist, Shion Kirino is now a burnt-out, bitter shell of himself, lost in grief over his mother's passing and his own dying passion toward the musical career that had defined his connection to her. When he's approached by Kei Takase — a talented younger colleague who professes his admiration for Kirino — he ends up inviting him home for sex, intending on toying with his feelings.
When Takase isn't deterred by Kirino's abrasive exterior, Kirino finds that he cannot deny Takase's unwavering devotion... But practicing piano together and celebrating Takase's successes also stirs up Kirino's own insecurities and distorted sense of jealousy. After a lifetime of loneliness, can he find salvation in Takase without dragging him down?
