Rosamunde Pilcher: Die Braut meines Bruders

SYNOPSIS

Henry and his fiancee Emma Boyle start a London snack-bar and sandwich delivery firm, investing her small inheritance. When she gets pregnant unplanned, Henry disappears after clearing their account. Aunt Carolin, a Cornwall physiotherapist, takes in penniless Carolin. Her patients include Emma's youth friend Marc Romney, whose domineering conservative father William finally got him a lucrative London Premier League (soccer) contract. Marc is closet-gay with present club doc lover Sam. Model incumbent alibi fiancee Julia canceling just then for her foreign true love, Marc asks ex Emma, who could thus support her unborn child. Emma however falls desperately in love with star pianist Charles Miller, who turns out Marc's estranged brother, raised by their long-divorced mother. When Emma's pregnancy gets out and William doubts Marc's paternity, all may lose everything.
