Description
A laugh out loud romantic comedy set in Andalucia, Spain.
Can a guiri really make it as a flamenco guitarist in Seville?
Can a flamenco dancer fall for a British guy without breaking up her family?
Charlie is done with London, his stressful sales job, and chips, peas and faggots on a Thursday night. All he wants to do is become a professional guitarist. After losing his job, potential girlfriend, and splitting up his band, he realises that maybe the only place he can fulfil his dream of becoming a professional guitarist is in Seville, Spain.
He wants to steer clear of women, so he can focus on his dream of becoming a flamenco guitarist.
But love always comes along when you least expect it.
On arriving in Seville, Charlie meets Ramón, a flamenco teacher, who notices his extraordinary gift. Charlie's chances of surviving in a traditional Spanish flamenco world are almost impossible, but Ramón takes him under his wing.
As Charlie is engulfed in his first flamenco show, he spots Mercedes, and is immediately drawn in by her exotic Spanish beauty.
Flamenco dancer Mercedes craves to find a romantic man who will treat her right. She's sick of Sevillano men putting their mothers before her. She has always had a fascination with British guys, but she never expects one to show up while she is performing in a tablao, and turn her life upside down.
As soon as their eyes meet, their hearts and souls connect, and their love story begins.
True love is never easy to conquer, especially for two lovers from completely different backgrounds and countries, who speak different languages, and a strict, traditional, Catholic Spanish father who is determined to ruin any chances they have of becoming one.
Will Charlie rise to the challenge of becoming a flamenco guitarist and win the heart of Mercedes?
Will Mercedes go against her father's wishes and risk breaking up her family?
