Izumi Tanaka, a Japanese-American, instantly became a princess after discovering that her father was the Japanese Crown Prince. She has now triumphed against scheming relatives, a scandalous press, and an imperial scandal to at last find her position. Her ideal bodyguard has become her lover. She lives in Tokyo with her dog, Tamagotchi, who stinks. Her parents are engaged and have even reignited their college romance. A royal nuptial is imminent! Izumi's existence is a Tokyo fantasy realized.
Just...
The engagement of her parents reaches a dead end. The Imperial Household Council rejects the marriage, stating that Izumi's mother's lack of ancestry is a cause for worry. A stunning choice about their relationship is made by her bodyguard-turned-boyfriend on top of everything else. Izumi promises to do all in her power to win over the council, even if it means everything may fall apart. Consequently, she must step up her newly acquired princess game.
Yet at what price? Izumi is willing to go to any lengths to ensure her parents' happy ever after, but what if living up to the ideal of a princess means sacrificing her own? Will she be able to follow her intuition and create her own path?
Tokyo Dreaming by Emiko Jean is the follow-up to the New York Times bestseller Tokyo Ever After, a Reese Witherspoon Book Club Pick, and takes place in Tokyo during a royal wedding.
