"The neighbor, please!" has been the motto for generations for the women in Isabelle's family: For over a hundred years, all the first marriages of their ancestors have failed as if by a curse. It was only the second marriage that brought eternal happiness. Isabelle finally wants to find that with Pierre, her beloved. And to avoid the curse, she forges a perfect plan: find some fool, seduce him, marry him and divorce him immediately, and then marry the man of your dreams. Sounds easy, if the accidental victim weren't the rather goofy Jean-Yves Berthier, editor of a well-known travel guide, which she has to follow from the Maasai on Kilimanjaro to Moscow in order to reach her destination. A honeymoon of a special kind, in which Isabelle goes through the craziest adventures, makes life hell for her innocent victim and gets to know herself and her plan of happiness from a whole new side.
