Description
xShe Broke an Ancient Tradition by Falling in Love
Kanno Masayo, Miss One Thousand Spring Blossoms, is the loveliest and most glamorous geisha in all of Japan. Dick Seaton is a shy, handsome American whose business takes him to Japan to close a very big deal. In violation of a timeless taboo, Dick and Kanno spend slow, tantalizing days falling in love.
Then Dick discovers that Kanno's love was paid for by his businessmen hosts. Sensing his rage and hurt, Kanno flees in confusion. And, too late, Dick realizes the truth-that she really loved him.
Now, a stranger in a strange, exotic land, he must find her-and seduce her back into his life.
Love her for a night... and you will remember her for a lifetime.
