Synopsis[]

Yuki Kawahara came to Tokyo to give herself a year to become a published novelist. On the brink of failure, she has a chance encounter with Futo Oda, a junior executive at a major publisher to whom she tries to give her novel. Oda, however, is preoccupied with finding an assistant for an irascible, but highly successful novelist, Risa Tono, whose works his company publishes. He persuades Yuki to take the job, which she agrees to do on a temporary basis, for she will soon return to her home town to marry her fiancé.

At first, she is given menial jobs but soon, Risa discovers that her new assistant is a talented writer and she gives her small writing jobs. It turns out that Risa is burned out and can no longer write. Gradually, Yuki becomes her indispensable ghost writer. Thinking she will get an opportunity to develop her career through her association with Risa, Yuki doesn’t return home as planned. But tensions arise between the two women and eventually they fall out. How their relationship proceeds is the heart of the story of the series.
