The story of L’Amour et les forêts revolves around Blanche. When she first crossed paths with Greg, she thought she’d found the one she’d been looking for. They quickly formed an attachment, but their relationship is marred by Greg’s quick temper. Blanche ignores her niggling doubts and distances herself from her family and twin sister, convinced that she’s reinventing herself. And little by little, she finds herself caught in the trap of a possessive and dangerous man. A man she’s too ashamed and frightened to report. Because there are only two possible exit routes from control: either the victim breaks free or they fall apart…

故事围绕一对年近五十的姐弟展开——爱丽丝是演员，路易斯是教师和诗人。他们不再互相交谈，二十多年来一直在躲避对方，但父母的去世将迫使他们走上歧途。
