tl;dr
Incredibly light on plot, with very cute illustrations, and a reasonable amount of comedic moments.

About
Kiichiro is smart, attractive, and incredibly wealthy. Unfortunately, he's also hopelessly clumsy, and the only thing keeping him from accidentally breaking everything his maid Miss Kishi. But despite all the help she gives him, he feels like he can't seem to find a way to properly thank her.

Thoughts
This manga is exactly what it claims to be: A lightweight romance (?) about a clumsy billionaire and the cool-headed maid who helps him. Cute misunderstandings and over-the-top romantic gestures are the order of the day, with very little by way of plot to tie it together. Artwork is pleasantly shoujo, with Miss Kishi's design being especially attractive. If you're looking for some fluffy light hijinks with no strings attached, this is a good afternoon read.
