Romeo and Juliet are dead.
Peace has been ordered, but a tense truce holds between Capulets and Montagues after the death of Romeo and Juliet. After bitterly blaming her cousin Juliet for her love Romeo’s death, Rosaline is bent on revenge. Torn between being voted the Capulet’s new Prince of Cats, and giving into the grief and jealousy that torments her mind, this thrilling sequel shows the consequences of Romeo and Juliet’s actions.
A stirring tale of love, violence, and new beginnings. The order may be for peace, but the Capulets and Montagues are far from it.
