In 1946 Hawaii, Tomeo Yamaguchi harbors a secret that would be considered shameful by his traditional Japanese family—he aches for the caress of other men. Which makes it particularly devastating when Tomeo's father hires a tanomoshi—a matchmaker—to find a bride for his son. Tomeo spends time with the tanomoshi, Shin Yamada, and as the men come to know one another, deep feelings emerge, the transition from friends to lovers inevitable. They fall into a clandestine affair, their hushed and hidden lovemaking as beautiful and breathless in their eyes as it is torrid in the eyes of others. More time spent worshipping Tomeo's body means less time finding him a suitable bride. Shin's forsaking his duty...but mating Tomeo is worth every stolen second.
