Strings Attached

After leaving her disaster of a boyfriend, Jean decides to be a little more adventurous when it comes to dating again... but she soon discovers there's always strings attached.

The laugh-out-loud romantic comedy with a difference, all about the highs and lows of modern dating

Newly single Jean is dating again... he just so happens to be married.

Straight-laced Jean has just broken up with her overgrown baby of a boyfriend. At 30, she's always done what's expected of her - by her traditional parents, by her demanding boss, and by her disaster of an ex-boyfriend - and if she doesn't have some fun now, when will she?

Taking her life into her own hands, she decides to do something that takes her out of her comfort zone; a woman heels-over-head, and not head-over-heels, in love. When Jean meets married-but-open pianist Gabriel, she explores all that modern romance has to offer with a polyamorous love affair. From navigating tricky waters with Gabriel and his wife, to dating a pansexual couple, via infiltrating an exclusive sex party and jetting off to an orgasmic meditation retreat in Ibiza, Jean screams 'Yes!' to life.

But can relationships last, without entangled hearts being broken?
