My fiancée is a week late, just done a test and don't know if there is a faint line? What do people think?

How accurate are these? Don't know if we are just hoping.

If the line came up in the allowed time then it's accurate. A positive is only present because there are pregnancy hormones in the sample. There's no other way of getting a positive line. Some tests are more sensitive than others, so a less sensitive test might still show a negative result at the moment. If you have a second test then maybe use it tomorrow morning as the first morning wee tends to have a higher concentration of hormones.
