After hearing that her boyfriend lacks the courage to break up with her, plucky Elena decides she’d be less humiliated if Arturo was ensnared by a man rather than a woman.

Happy and accomplished, Ellias becomes the new artistic director of a famous French Haute Couture house. When he learns that his father, whom he has not seen for many years, has just died of a heart attack, Ellias goes to Quebec to settle the estate. The young creator will discover that he has inherited much worse than his father's fragile heart.
