But will they continue this arrangement like two especially close roommates...or will a different kind of love bloom between them?
 
I Married My Female Friend Vol. 1 will be released for the first time in North America in December 2023 for $14.99 USA / $18.99 CAN, with the series available in print and on digital platforms in single large-trim editions as part of the Seven Seas GL label (Girls’ Love titles).
