After so many M/Ms it is great to find one with such an original and delightful plot with quite a few laughs to keep me highly entertained. This writer shows us her rich world building skills inTurnskin. In her latest, Nicole Kimberling again demonstrates her amazing creativity and imagination. Like Sirius says, there is good research done. Using Japanese folklore and beliefs the plot is highly entertaining, original and humorous as one Canadian professor goes visiting Japanese towns known for it folklore of ancient devils, a seemingly demure but attractive Daisuke serving as guardian/translator by his side. The professor's very foundation is shaken when he is pursued by one love struck gay "yokai" (demon), whom he named "Fingers". Both Hank and Daisuke are appealing characters especially the seemingly stoic Daisuke. "Fingers" himself is adorable. For those of us MM fan who want plot and less sex, this is the one for you. A unique plot with a cute romance.
