Grayson Ferris, president and CEO of the Queens hotel chain, goes to Tokyo, Japan in search of his cousin. While there, he meets Melanie Yoko.  At first, they start off on the wrong foot, but Grayson ends up asking Melanie an outrageous favor: pretend to be his cousin and trick his dying grandfather that she is his lost granddaughter.  Melanie thinks he's nuts at first, but since he's willing to offer a lot of money she finally agrees.  As certain obstacles keep Melanie from returning to who she was originally, she starts to wish that she was really part of Grayson's family since it has been so long since she felt the warmth and love of a family.  How long can Grayson and Melanie keep up this farce?  And will their attraction to each other eventually lead to their demise?

Cover by @RappingLikeMonster "...Have your parents told you about it yet?" he decides to make this less awkward for me and speaks in Japanese "The fact I'm getting married off soon? Yep. Who to? Nope." I smile at him for being so nice, also speaking Japanese again. "You don't know who to?" "Nope, all I know is he goes to Ouran and has links to the Peony family." "Everybody has links to the Peony family in one way or another; especially in our grade!" "I know." "Your family is law in England Kuri." "Duh, that's why everybody's got a link, because we are the only family to have the country pretty much bowing to us." "You and the Royals." Kuri Miyoko Peony is the only daughter thus only heir to the Peony family's corporate empire. The Peony family for generations slowly began to dominate the Britain's corporations. Heir after heir would marry one of another wealthy family in the industry to secure more stability when taking over companies. It was Ace Peony, Kuri's "sick Papa" who made the biggest advance in corporate domination. His marriage to Genevieve Russo took the world by storm, merging two large companies together. Kuri is almost old enough to marry too. She is a very desirable young girl; as far as her talents show; being fluent in English, Italian and Japanese is quite a skill as well as being a talented violin player. Kuri's father has arranged a marriage for Kuri. But his sick ways have made this a game. Kuri is expected to guess who her fiancée and later husband will be. And all she knows is that he goes to Ouran Academy. Can Kuri Peony, the girl who was taught to value money work out who she is to marry or is she going to be wondering who until she's given a ring?

The couple really strays off the beaten path and dives headlong into their new surroundings, discovering the highlights and lowlights of greater Tokyo in the course of their quest. Covering popular and celebrated sights as well as "secret" locations less reputable but equally as stimulating and educational for the unsuspecting pair. They grow closer to friends and fellow teachers during that time, sharing experiences and struggles as mounting obstacles in the form of interracial relationships, cultural differences, societal racism and general misunderstanding of daily life are handled with difficulty and ease in turn. Gaining inspirational cues from associates, cultural attractions and the general population alike. Delving into the seedier side of Tokyo life to witness the underbelly of Japanese culture first-hand as much as the upper eschelons of society with both fascination and inflamed senses for various reasons. Transititioning between disparate worlds effortlessly and gracefully to learn all they can about the people and culture they've selected as home. From hostess bars to criminal haunts to high-powered and glass-towered sections frequented by the upper class, Sandy and Paul embrace and (if all goes well) rise to it all. They also run into a couple on the street, not much older than themselves, who offer them an opportunity to catapult their careers working with the next generation of top university graduates. Initially the interview process seems strict but intriguing as it involves an international organization training future executives, corporate heads and government brass. Paul and Sandy must undergo extensive training as well as thorough security clearances in order to qualify for these prestigious positions. Leading them into a hidden world they have no idea about until it becomes their own to witness and interact with personally. Something they are wary of at first.
