i mean, the fact that we never heard about this pretty much shows that it wasn't a success.
contrary to men being known for being horny, they read almost no horny books. erotic literature is like over 90% female readers. don't ask me why, but men just don't like to read their smut the same way women do. so no, i don't think this ever had any chance of succeeding unless it was a movie instead, but how often do movies that are only about women being hot actually succeed anymore?
Needs an anime adaption.
H!, that might do it lol.
Alternative theory: teen boys/men would, on the whole, rather be caught dead than reading anything associated with (gasp) girl media. Which the twilight franchise and Stephanie Meyer is.
Once you start paying attention, you realize that the things society hates on most for no real reason is media meant for teenage girls.
