From Japan With Love Teejay Lecapois

Meet Chiyoko "Chi-Chi" Tanaka-Magloire. Today, this happily married Japanese-American woman lives in the affluent suburb of Milton, Massachusetts. As a successful lawyer and the devoted mother of college-bound 18-year-old Aaron Taizo Magloire, Chiyoko has it all. Decades ago, Chiyoko led a very different life. Born in Utsunomiya, Japan, to a fiercely traditional Japanese family and raised in Boston, Chiyoko walked in many worlds. At Northeastern University, this aspiring lawyer met charming Haitian-born Civil Engineering student Edgar Magloire, and they fell in love. Their respective families simply wouldn't have it and cut them off. Thus began Edgar and Chiyoko's remarkable tale as they defy their families, overcome the odds and forge a durable dynasty, the Tanaka/Magloire clan, in modern-day New England.
