ME AND THE PREZ, DRINKING UNDER THE STARS VOL. 01 TP

An adorably awkward office rom-com about a young woman finding her footing at work and the man who is devoted to seeing her succeed.After inheriting her late father's printing company, Izutsu Reina (24) becomes its youngest president-along with all the pressure and isolation the title brings. At work, she's known as a terrifying boss, driving herself and her employees to the breaking point. But one night, away from the office, department supervisor Ishizumi Kenichi encounters a very different Reina: alone in a quiet park, drink in hand, ranting beneath the stars and admitting she's on the verge of giving up.Too exhausted-and too tipsy-to realize she's confiding in one of her own subordinates, Reina lets her guard down completely. Listening in silence, Kenichi makes a quiet promise to support her-not as an employee, or an inferior, but simply as himself.As their secret nighttime meetings continue, a gently awkward, slightly improper romance begins to take shape-one where job titles fade away, and two lonely adults find comfort in honesty after hours. Zurikishi is a manga creator in Japan. Me and the Prez, Drinking Under the Stars is his first series to be published in English.
