Description

Tokyo Ever After follows the story of Izumi Tanaka, a Japanese-American girl who has never felt like she truly fit in in her small, predominantly white Northern California town. Her life is turned upside down when she discovers that her absent father is actually the Crown Prince of Japan, making her a princess. As Izumi embarks on a journey to Japan to meet her father and explore her royal roots, she navigates the intricacies of palace protocol, the media's scrutiny, and the challenges of falling for her handsome bodyguard, Akio. Throughout her adventures, Izumi grapples with her identity, her place between two cultures, and what it means to be a family. The book is a heartwarming and humorous exploration of self-discovery, romance, and finding where you truly belong.
