Catholic married to Anglican? It’s a wonderful story (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

romance

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a wonderful story' is the definition.
'romance' can be an answer for 'story' (romance is a kind of story). I am not sure about the 'a wonderful' bit.

'catholic married to anglican?' is the wordplay.
'catholic' becomes 'Roman Catholic' (Roman Catholic is an example).
'married to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'anglican?' becomes 'ce' (Church of England).
'roman'+'ce'='ROMANCE'

'it's' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for romance that I've seen before include "Feeling of mystery; love affair" , "Novel (or often its main theme)" , "Group of languages" , "Novel - love story" , "Novel - affair" .)
