A feature length drama, charting the history of the publishing phenomenon, Mills & Boon through the interwoven stories of three very different women, set in three very different times as they try to incorporate romance and passion into their own lives. Charles Boon s early 20th century publishing business with Gerald Mills is a great success but his wife Mary is left yearning for the kind of passion that fills the pages of her husband s books. In the 1970s Janet is infatuated with her mother s tall, dark and handsome Doctor. In the present day, Kirsty a university lecturer in literature and feminist studies, does not subscribe to the Mills & Boon take on love and passion, but then a sexy young stranger shows her otherwise.
