But to make a living, she has set up a rather unusual agency with her best friend Bertille: Book A Partner, where she offers her services—as a ball girl, a relationship counselor, a loving daughter, or as the partner of a gay man who doesn’t dare tell his parents he is in a relationship with a man. Léa discovers that the latter is the brother of Raphaël, one of her exes. She is still in love with him, but finds herself trapped in her own lie, since she is supposed to be his sister-in-law.
