   I highly recommend the first book (Beggar/Bad). It's incredibly angsty; there's a misunderstanding between the two, and later the bottom (uke) dies of HIV while the top (seme) is undergoing surgery. Almost everyone in this book hurts the bottom; my heart was pounding with pain. The second book made me furious. The third book is about incest; the younger brother dies before the two even get together. All of them are Bad/Bad.

    The story begins with imprisonment, and while it seems the seme (dominant partner) hates the uke (submissive partner), he's actually head over heels in love. The seme orchestrates a thirteen-year scheme for the uke, forcing himself to play the role of someone who doesn't love him. It truly made me cry buckets; it's incredibly moving. The author's writing is superb, and I highly recommend it. (Note: Reading the extra chapters is a sad ending.)
