Sinopsis

When his father is accused of rebellion and forced to commit seppuku, it falls to Maki Bunshirō to protect his family's house from future retribution. Training as a samurai, Bunshirō must hone his skills with the sword and make powerful allies among the elders of the domain if he hopes to survive. As he is navigating clan politics, the object of his youthful affection, Fuku, becomes the mistress of the lord of the domain. When Fuku and her child become the key to the future of the domain, Bunshirō is forced to choose between what his lord commands and his childhood love.
Semishigure, literally meaning "cicada showers," refers to the ever-present noise of insects chirping in Japanese summers, a nostalgic reminder of the passing seasons. This much-loved, sentimental samurai novel by Shuhei Fujisawa, the undisputed master of the genre, is finally available in English, and Thomas Harper's deft translation brings all of the power, longing, and joy of the original that has captivated generations of Japanese readers.

    I messed up, and now it's time to face the music . . . literally. 
     
     
     
    I thought I was helping. That I knew best. Even though he was saying he didn't want it, I knew he would be loved by millions if he'd just let the world hear his talent. 
     
     
     
    So, I did it, anyway. I uploaded a video of my not-so-secret crush, Bram Baker, singing and playing his guitar to my popular and heavily followed BingBang account, and guess what!? I was right. The video reached millions of people, and a star was born. 
     
     
     
    But now, Bram hates me. I disregarded his wishes, and his life changed without his permission. He never had any desire for the adoration of strangers, and my actions screwed up his perfectly average and peaceful existence. 
     
     
     
    Just in time for my big move to Evening Shade, where he lives and tends bar at the small town's only tavern. 
     
     
     
    To make matters worse, the apartment I was supposed to live in has gone up in flames, my second option—staying with my newly engaged best friend—has been taken away, and I'm running out of alternatives . . . until the man I'd been falling for before I betrayed him steps up and shocks us all, offering me his spare bedroom. 
     
     
     
    This can work, right? Of course, it can. It has to.
