Genre

romance

Characters

Synopsis

Sue is upset when she discovers the man she has been dating on her vacation to Spain was not actually a film star, but his stand-in. She returns home to England and when she is confronted at work by a man she believes is the man she dates in Spain, she hits him, giving him a black eye. Only this time, it was the real film star and it ends up in all the newspapers. When there is a knock at the door, she thinks he had called the police to have her arrested. Instead, it is the stand-in who says all the things she wants to hear.
