Updates weekends.400+ pages already written.A historical fiction book set in Japan during the 1920s Taisho period. A story of cultural exchange between Japan, America, and North American First Nations.The first world war has come to a close, and everyone is ready to rumble into the twenties with light hearts and wide open horizons. Nevertheless, the roaring twenties don't welcome all with parties and glitz, and the Hampton family is living proof.Thrust from the humble plains of South Dakota's wheat farms, Lucy Hampton finds herself caught in between the throes of mourning after the death of her family from pneumonia all while being tossed an ocean away to reconnect with her Uncle Alfred and his fiancé Yuko Hasegawa.As if cultural struggles, language barriers, and class divides weren't enough problems for the Hamptons, when Lucy ruins the prized kimono of the young heiress Mieko Takahara, they are soon at the mercy of the affluent and elusive Takahara family, promising financial gain and security under the guise of shadowed business dealings paired with ludicrously fateful misunderstandings.Once Kazuma Kamoi, Mieko's confidant and the next heir to the Takahara Trading Company's fortune, returns from a three-year stint in New York, he is thrust into a charity project to pull Mieko's new friends out of poverty. His major issue among many? He can't help but have wandering eyes for one of these new clients.
