Une île paradisiaque, des personnages attachants, des situations loufoques... Émy, 37 ans, la maladresse incarnée, est embarquée presque malgré elle a l'autre bout de la planète, pour le mariage de sa meilleure amie alias la touffe. Maman célibataire pétillante, carrément déjantée et sans filtres, ce mariage va s'avérer être un nouveau départ, à bien des égards...

Two and a half decades into a devastating civil war, Sri Lanka's Tamil minority is pushed inexorably towards the coast by the advancing army. Amongst the evacuees is Dinesh, whose world has contracted to a makeshift camp where time is measured by the shells that fall around him like clockwork. Alienated from family, home, language, and body, he exists in a state of mute acceptance, numb to the violence around him, till he is approached one morning by an old man who makes an unexpected proposal: that Dinesh marry his daughter, Ganga.

Steph doesn't care that Bran is totally blind - at least he'll never notice the longing looks she gives him. If only she could warn him about the lack of love on his conniving fiancee's face. But Steph has to keep her mouth shut, or she could lose her job, along with the health insurance that keeps her daughter alive. Billionaire Branson Knight knows women regard him as a pitiful blind man, his wealth his only attraction. So his engagement is merely a means to an end. But the last thing he wants to end is his relationship with Stephanie.
