This book re-tells the tale of Romeo and Juliet from a modern perspective. It's about an older couple who falls in love, and their feuding families.
It's a light read, but thoroughly engrossing and enjoyable. I enjoyed it so much that I read it twice!
Since then, I've sought out other books by Jeanne Ray. She has a wonderful writing style and the ability to tell a story that pulls you in. You'll love all the characters!

A very popular (NY Times bestseller) funny romance between two very youthful sixty-somethings whose families have carried on a feud for generations. Love and sexual attraction conquers family objections.

A really good quick easy read - just right for a vacation book - doesn't require alot of hard thinking, but it is an enjoyable read!

Julie Roseman has known since childhood that Rosemans are supposed to despise Cacciamanis. She's never known exactly why...but she's followed her family's advice and avoided all Cacciamanis like the plague. Until she bumps into Romeo Cacciamani at a small-business conference-and realizes he's sort of...sweet. Now, this unexpected relationship is blooming into something big. But wait until their families find out...
