PRE-ORDER
It is no secret that I love romance stories, and when I read this blurb and saw that it was Romeo and Juliet I was all for it! There was a lot going on and many characters were introduced. We get the Romeo and Juliet story we are used to but in a more modern way, with cell phones and cars.
We
get to see the struggle Romeo and Juliet go through as they declare
their love for one another but realize that they can't/shouldn't be
together because of their family feud. Natalie, Juliet's older sister,
does try to help them out as much as possible, yet because of family
obligations she seemed conflicted. There were many that were against
them but a handful that were there for them, to help even though they
knew that it would probably end in tragedy.
This
wouldn't be a romance story if there wasn't angst, passion, drama, and
love. I can say there was plenty of that, and at times it confused me
and I had to re-read some parts again. It was a good story but I felt,
at times, there was too much going on and I would have liked it if it
was explained or expanded on a little more.
