FEATURED
BOOK – KYOTO CONNECTION
This
issue we feature a fiction book from Deborah Kemp. We are also
pleased to publish an excerpt from this title. Deborah has traveled
to Kyoto area many times and has used these experiences as the basis
for the novel.
The story details the love, passion and
suspense an American woman experiences while living and working in
Japan.
Page Queenan, lives and teaches in Kyoto, Japan. She
meets a wealthy Japanese man, Kenji Tanaka, and quickly becomes
involved with him, only to be drawn into his world- a world where
money is no problem, or is it? Page suspects Kenji is being
followed, and her suspicions become reality when he is kidnapped.
Some quick thinking and detective work on her part helps to end the
kidnapping, but the drama doesn't end there.
Page and Kenji's relationship causes his family to question whether Page is only interested in Kenji's money, and if she was possibly involved in the kidnapping. His family gradually comes to realize the seriousness of Kenji's commitment to Page, but Page continues to have doubts that they will ever accept a "gaijin" as a suitable partner for their only son.
They travel to Okinawa, London, and Boston, and their whirlwind romance becomes a strong and passionate union. Flying First class, staying in five star hotels, receiving jewelry from Cartier, and dresses from Chanel, is something Page has never experienced before, but even money can't shield her from what is to come.
Page and Kenji are determined to stay together as they deal with an attempted murder, accusations of infidelity, and revenge from an unexpected source, but being accepted in Kenji's world could prove to be Page's most difficult challenge of all.
