This show somehow reminded me of "Only Just Married" the plot isn't the same, but it had the same feeling. It also has that: "Oh no! the FL doesn't have anywhere to stay! Oh no! Maybe they can just live together??" kinda vibe.
In "Renai Mangaka" it's a labour contract that brought them together (I know, I can't believe I'm saying that either) as for "Only Just Married" it's a married contract.
All of the characters are also likeable despite some of them in real life would've been decribed as a demon (e.x Hayase-san) it's still plausaple and all of them are only meant for comical purposes. Definitely worth a watch if you're into romcoms with this kind of vibe..
