Libre Expression A (fake) perfect couple: Behind the scenes of a real friendship
Guylaine Tremblay and Denis Bouchard are, in a way, cosmic twins. They were born on the same date, almost at the same time (but not the same year, as Guylaine is always quick to point out!), and their families come from the same small village in the Charlevoix region. These close friends met in Montreal in the late 1980s, when they were both starting their careers. A true friendship blossomed, and since then, fate has kept bringing them together through their artistic and personal projects. It is this unique relationship, which has withstood the test of time and hardship, that they reveal in *A (False) Perfect Couple*. Peppered with never-before-told anecdotes, touching stories, and unpublished photos, this book is living proof that true friendship between men and women exists. Denis and Guylaine even like to say that they have done everything together... except make love!

At twenty-one, Germain Valcourt left the family farm in Montmagny, determined to build a future for himself in the city. Ambitious and hardworking, he founded his own bakery and pastry shop on Saint-Joseph Street. It was there that he noticed the brilliant Élisabeth Lussier, who became his wife, the mother of his children... and an essential ingredient in his success, thanks in particular to her talent for numbers and her innovative ideas. But when tragedy struck, Élisabeth found herself at the helm of a company she didn't feel ready to run alone. Supported by her sister Catherine and by Monsignor Prévost, the parish priest, she fought to keep the business afloat while others vied for a piece of the pie.

Valcourt company has become a cornerstone of the Saint-Roch district, internal tensions still simmer among the heirs. The tide is turning, and this little gem, forged through love and hard work, could very well falter! Claude Coulombe is the author of the books *La vie à bout de bras*, *Comme une fleur solitaire*, and *Derrière les apparences*. He offers us a new family saga as refined and delightful as the finest pastries.
