Momo and Kiley have just prevented Sae from engaging in prostitution with an elder client. When she tries to sell Momo a skin whitening product afterwards the suspicions are raised as to what exactly Ryo has her doing for him. Toji discovers via the internet that Ryo is involved with a serious pyramid scheme and has basically enlisted Sae to make the money for him, no matter what she has to do.
Momo's relationship has it's stops and starts too... on the one hand she wants to allow him his space so that he can mourn the loss of his true love, Nurse Misao, but on the other hand she wants him to only desire her... even if she is still not quite ready to give into his sexual desires. When he asks her to work with him at a convenience store so that they can raise the money for their special trip she resigns herself to it, but halfheartedly.
Then things spice up again as Sae gets involved in a porno video that she is blissfully ignorant of, and the only reason Momo knows what it is because Kiley has seen the people involved in porno movies. They must stop her from making a terrible mistake, even if Sae has never been the nicest person to Momo.
I can't stop reading this series. It's wonderful, and just the right kind of drama without being overblown that really makes a manga series wonderful. Pick it up... but beware, this series causes dire addictions...you won't be able to wait to find out what is happening next.
Fans of the series will be pleasantly surprised Once again, it is up to Momo to save Sae. But this book is different, it ends in an actually quite surprising way. If you were getting sick of Sae's thoughtless, evil antics then this book is the antidote. It offers some new, surprising twists and is definetly worth the read if you've been following the series.
OMG! This was so great Peach Girl is my favorite manga. The characters seem so real and so do the situations. Even though this one seems to be centered around Sae the ending is a real cliffhanger. I couldn't believe what Kiley did! I can't wait till the next one!
