“A celebration of a century of romance.”
Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the popular romance publishing phenomenon Mills & Boon, a colourful and camp drama which charts the witty and moving stories of three very different women affected by the brand's success: co-founder Charles Boon's wife Mary, daydreaming 1970s writer Janet and modern-day literature lecturer Kirstie.
