A sign of affection

2022
"Yuki's life revolved around friends, fashion, her classes, and social media, until something interrupted her routine: a chance meeting with Itsuomi, a classmate with a passion for languages, world travel, movies--and, increasingly, for Yuki. Amazed at how casually Itsuomi asked her out, Yuki couldn't help but wonder how serious this relationship was for him, but, with Itsuomi showing his devotion in little ways, every day, another thrilling thought has entered her mind: What if this new happiness could become her new normal?"--Back cover.

A sign of affection

2021
"Yuki is a college student who's into friends and fashion. She's also deaf. A chance meeting on a train leads to a serious crush... but can it grow into something more? Yuki, who's always been deaf, is used to communicating with sign language and her phone. But she's not used to English, so when a tourist from overseas asks for directions, she nearly panics...until a handsome stranger steps in to help. His name is Itsuomi, and it turns out he's a friend of a friend. A charismatic globetrotter, Itsuomi speaks three languages, but he's never had a deaf friend. The two feel drawn to each other and plan a date on a romantic winter's night…but Yuki's friend is afraid that she might be setting herself up to get hurt. Could this be something real? Or will these feelings melt away with the snow?"--Back cover.
