Plot
Ryo Fujihashi, a 24-year-old office worker, is childhood friends with Souma Mizuno, a firefighter. She plans on setting him up with a co-worker from her office, but she assumes the reason why their dates fail is because of his womanizing ways. When Souma saves her when her apartment catches on fire, he offers her a place to stay. Ryo later learns that he has been in love with her for a long time.

Reception
Rebecca Silverman from Anime News Network felt that the first volume was a "fun contemporary romance" for adult women aside from yaoi manga and claimed Ryo was a strong female lead; however, she also warned that there were some non-consensual scenes.
