Three American women, rooming together while working abroad in Rome, Italy hope for romance and marriage. Frances, oldest of the three, has been 15 years a secretary to novelist John Frederick Shadwell, whom she loves but whose reclusive nature prompts most people to believe that he's long dead. Anita, one week away from returning to America under the claim of getting married, finally bucks company rules (and gets caught) by finally accepting an invitation from an Italian co-worker to visit his family's farm for his sister's wedding. Newly-arrived Maria soon sets her generally-innocent eyes on Dino di Cessi, an actual prince with a reputation for womanizing, and makes a play for him by making herself his perfect match.—statmanjeff
