Snow Fairy by Tomo Serizawa

Snow Fairy

by Tomo Serizawa

When famous wildlife photographer Narumi comes to Hokkaido to take photos of the elusive "snow fairies," he ends up stranded in a snow storm. After being rescued, he takes up residence in local farmer Haruki's house for the winter. As polar opposites, sophisticated and outgoing city slicker Narumi and country boy Haruki have a lot to learn from one another. 

After Haruki shows an interest, Narumi teaches him about photography... and before he realizes it, he finds himself the sole subject of Haruki's new hobby. After a winter spent so close together, what will the spring thaw bring?

Summary:

One day, on his way home, Haruki comes across an animal photographer by the name of Akihito. While he's confused about why anyone would want to spend so much time out in the cold (and snow), he's immediately curious about the man.

So when he finds out that Akihito doesn't have a place to stay, Haruki quickly offers him a room at his place. It's the proper thing to do, right?

My Review:

If you're looking for a sweet m/m romance, Snow Fairy is the one for you. For starters, the artwork is stunning. Then there's the romantic plot, which is highly endearing. Okay, the whole "inviting a stranger to live with you" plot isn't ideal, but since this isn't reality, we can overlook that bit.

Opposites attract meets insta-love and a variety of forced proximity in this story, making it perfect for fans who love a combination of tropes. Best of all, the chemistry between Haruki and Akihito is legit. There's no need to force yourself into enjoying this plot, as you'll be swept away by it. Promise.

Highlights:
Forced Proximity (sort of)
Opposites Attract
LGBT
Yaoi
M/M Romance
