	Story Everyone thinks 16-year-old Ryoko has weird taste in guys because she can't stop drooling over Ryu, the strong silent type who sits next to her in class. When she discovers he works for a host club—where women actually pay men to date them—will she finally wise up? Or will he leave his job to be with her? Or will she take a job at the club so he can quit so she can be with him so...? Only one thing's for sure in B.O.D.Y.—you can't put a price on love!

	Volumes Status in Japan :: complete at 15 volumes Status in US :: 10/15 released Volume 1 Everyone thinks 16-year-old Ryoko has weird taste in guys because she can't stop drooling over Ryunosuke, the strong silent type who sits next to her in class. When she discovers he works for a host club—where women actually pay men to date them—will she finally wise up? Or will he leave his job to be with her? Or will she take a job at the club so he can quit and she can be with him...? Only one thing's for sure in B.O.D.Y.—you can't put a price on love! Volume 2 Dear Valentine, You gave me my first stolen kiss, but something clearly was amiss.Your ex-GF seemed awful pissed… The longer I longed to date you. The more my feelings grew... But at work you'd met dozens of girls--So why would you want me too? You promised to give up your job for me! That together we would finally be! But cruel fate (and your boss) wouldn't let you go... What I did was for you--can't you see!? Be mine! Volume 3 Dear Valentine, You caught me with another man. Please forgive me if you can. It's not how it looks, I'm still your greatest fan. Host club owner Jin has a secret. Tragedy he has oft met. Who is behind his broken heart? What will Ryunosuke from Jin get? Be mine! Volume 4 Dear Valentine, That host who says that you're the man is telling you a lie. You know that I'm your biggest fan and not some creepy guy. He wants to ruin your career and I don't think it's cool. But I've got my own troubles, dear: I'm flunking out of school! Volume 5 Dear Valentine, Whose woods these are I sure don't know but now I'm lost deep in the snow. I hope someone will find me here if not a friend, at least a foe. This ski trip's gone awry, I fear, and Kosuke's a pain in the rear. I'm not sure how much I can take so please come rescue me, my dear. Volume 6 Dear Valentine, I knew that Kousuke was trouble right from the very start. Now he's vowed revenge on me and broken my friend's heart. Why can't she give up on him? He's played her for a fool! Why can't more hosts be like you? Why's he such a tool? Be mine! Volume 7 Dear Valentine, Our new teacher is pretty hot -- All the guys in class wish they had a shot. And the way she's looking you up and down has me freaking out an awful lot. What happened when she tutored you? Are the tales I'm hearing really true? I want the truth, and I want it now. Or we're gonna have to say adieu. Be mine! Volume 8 Dear Valentine, Had we but world enough and time just dating wouldn't be a crime. I wouldn't think that it was right to say that I should spend the night. But at my back I always hear that sexy teacher slinking near. To get Miss Izumi out of your head should I suggest we go to bed? Be mine! Volume 9 Dear Valentine, You saw me at that club last night and then you got into a fight. I tried to make it up to you but suddenly things aren't all right. I didn't even want to go and now I hurt more than you know. You really want to say we're through? Please tell me that the answer's no! Be mine! Volume 10 Dear Valentine, When we two parted and you disappeared I felt brokenhearted, but I dried my tears. I'd hoped you'd move on and try to make the most. I just heard you've gone back to work as a host! Be mine! Volume 11 - coming soon Dear Valentine, Far from the noise of Tokyo a lonely girl has met Ryo and looked at him and uttered, "Whoa!" And so begins her tale of woe and thickening of plot. She hopes she's caught her cousin's eye and she can't stand to say goodbye, but when things go a bit awry is it okay for her to lie? Ryoko says it's not! Be mine!
