Willow Baxter is a painter, nothing more, living in Japan to study Sumi-e style painting. She’s never wanted anything more than to put her brush to canvas and create works of art, but one evening, she’s swept away by a man who is more than meets the eye.
Akira is a kitsune with a destiny behind him to find the odd-eyed woman who will carry his hoshi-no-tama and become his fox bride. As the two are thrust together, Akira has to learn that there is more to being a god than reveling in human debauchery, and Willow will have to learn to let go of her past in order to see a worthwhile future.
