When Wall Street Journal reporter Amanda Bennett meets the eccentric, infuriating, yet somehow irresistible Terence Bryan Foley while on assignment in China, the last thing she expects is to marry him.

"You’re going to need somebody to take care of you."

Decades before trade moved between the United States and Japan at its present pace, there was a Japanese immigrant's son with an American dream.
