The Second Time Around begins where Lake Biwa Wishes ends. Toni Chang Morgan, still hurting from the discovery that her late husband had been having an affair, travels to Japan. She reconnects with playboy skier, Ken Nakamura, with whom she fell in love years ago. He also is widowed and when he proposes, she immediately accepts. Toni discovers that Ken's friend, Vivica James, was his first love when he was a graduate student. She identifies Vivica as her enemy and is jealous of her and all the women attracted to Ken. Will her incessant jealousy destroy their new marriage? When Ken and Toni move to Idaho with his five-year old daughter, Kyoko, he leaves his pre-teen son in Japan at a boarding school. Toni continues her job as an engineer in the National Laboratory, while Ken teaches ski school and performs exhibition skiing in the local ski resorts. Ken has an accident, can no longer ski, and has to return to Japan to work for his wealthy, estranged father. Toni quits her job and with Kyoko, joins Ken. Will Toni be expected to be a Japanese wife? Or can she keep her American ways? Unfortunately, their blended family bears no resemblance to TV's Brady Bunch. Can this marriage be successful despite the differences in culture, countries, and socio/economic status? Join Toni and Ken as they attempt to rebuild a family loaded with excess attitudinal baggage.

Judy Lussie began writing fiction after her retirement as the Technical Information Department Head from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Her love of reading and church activities led to her being asked to write devotionals for These Days Magazine. Some of the devotionals developed into novels: Mandy's Song and its sequel Courtney's Quest. Originally from Chicago, Judy lived in Idaho for thirty years, with a two year stint in Japan, and relocated to California to work at the Lab. A novella, Lake Biwa Wishes and its sequel The Second Time Around take place in Idaho and Japan.
