Puppy Love by Tsuchida Haru
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Inukai is a bit of a workaholic, often forgetting his own self care as he loses time to the slavery of corporate work. At least, until he meets Hoshi, an energetic and kind clerk at a pet store. There's more than meets the eye here though as Hoshi remembers a past life as a dog himself, and the scent of the boy who saved him, which amazingly is the same scent he picks up on Inukai. There are several ups and downs as they navigate their evolving relationship and what they ultimately want, all helped along with a tiny little puff ball named Cotton Candy (or C.C.). The ending is rather hilarious with Hoshi's earnest promise to Inukai's grandfather to help shovel snow the next time it snows, and then their high tailing it back home to escape the snow - timing?! This is a more unique idea than many BL storylines, with just enough fluff to make it cute and endearing without being overbearing.
