Lucas Edwards is a successful businessman who loves his job and has strong ties to his family and friends. His friends are also the reason he meets the very beautiful and, even more importantly, intelligent Elodie Betrand from the other side of the channel.
Paris-born Elodie has just decided to relocate to London permanently and moves in with Lucas while she’s looking for a place of her own. She is very much willing to be more than just friends – Lucas is after all handsome and has a dry wit that appeals to her – but he makes it clear that they are „strictly friends“.
Elodie doesn’t know that Lucas just received a diagnosis that makes him have a rather grim outlook at life and he’d much rather not pull Elodie into it – even though she’s the only woman he’d love to have in his life for the long haul.
