Hayate the Combat Butler, Vol. 1, Paperback

Hardworking Hayate has a plan to pay the yakuza--who are now the legal owners of his vital organs--back: he'll kidnap someone and ransom them for a mountain of money. But things get tricky when his would-be kidnappee--who as luck would have it is the daughter of a mind-bogglingly wealthy family--mistakes Hayate's actions for a confession of love, and hires him to be her personal servant. At least his employment future is secure, or so he thinks...

Hayate the Combat Butler is Kenjiro Hata's first manga series. He debuted with Kamisama ni Rocket Punch. He is a big fan of classic children's stories such as Frances Hodgson Burnett's Little Lord Fauntleroy and A Little Princess.
