New Testament book including Church of England stories (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

romances

'stories' is the definition.
(romance is a kind of story)

'new testament book including church of england' is the wordplay.
'new testament book' becomes 'romans' (I've seen this before).
'including' is an insertion indicator.
'church of england' becomes 'ce' (abbreviation).
'romans' enclosing 'ce' is 'ROMANCES'.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
