β¦ Synopsis
In 1983, life for Fiona Black was simple.She loved fashion, nights out at Bingo, and Duran Duran.Her days were spent working in her mother's haberdashery shop or hanging out with her two best friends.She was also planning her wedding.Unlike her idol Princess Di, Fiona hadn't landed a prince. Her fiancΓ© Andrew wasn't perfect, but royalty was hard to come by in her small town in Manchester.Her princess aspirations were closeted, but perfection could always be found in the pages of the romance novels she loved so much.What she didn't realise was that a real life fairy-tale was waiting for her in London, and it would be more epic than the twenty-five foot train on Princess Di's wedding dress.All she had to do was find it.
