What others are saying
Modern Romeo and Juliet
Not your typical romancce read. This book has a little more edge in the story and a little more romance combined. I look forward to seeing what happens to Delilah and Iseah next ……the two main characters where interesting and smartly written.
Twisted Romeo and Juliet
I finished the book and found some merit.The two main characters end up being fairly well-developed. They are working for rival organizations and end up with both being placed in the same untenable situation. They do manage to resolve it adequately with a little outside-the-box thinking.
The problems come with execution. There are word choice issues and some misspellings, but the really annoying part is when the characters are involved in (sometimes) witty repartee. It can go on for awhile and once the author gets on a roll, it becomes hard to follow which character is speaking. There is an unusual convention being used where one character makes a quoted statement then on the same line/in the same paragraph, we get the physical response of the other person. I’m not fond of rereading to grasp things like this so it’s really rather surprising I finished the book. That probably says something about the premise and because I’ve always been frustrated/irritated by the limited problem-solving skills of the original star-crossed lovers.
This book is not for the squeamish. There’s not much gore, but quite a number of abuse and killing discussions. Sex is integral to the plot, if that’s an issue, avoid this book.
