'So what's wrong with wanting a boyfriend who's cashed up for a change?
'Liane has always dreamed about the good life, but when a friend sets her up with the maniac called Jake, she wonders whether she's enough of a gold-digger to go with him just because he's rich.
'Of course, Cinderella married her prince - but who'd want to marry a prince these days? You'd spend your entire life shaking hands, making speeches, fighting off paparazzi and reading about yourself in the gossip pages.
'So when Sophie decides to start up "Home Grrrls", a magazine about real girls, Liane finds herself caught in an ironic credibility gap between the fantasy of her everyday and the real life of the zine.'
