I m the eldest daughter of Romeo and Juliet. Yes, that Romeo and Juliet. No, they didn t die in the tomb. They re alive and well and living in fair Verona with their six wildly impetuous children and me, their nineteen-year-old daughter Rosaline Knives Out meets Bridgerton in Fair Verona, as New York Times bestselling author Christina Dodd kicks off a frothy, irreverent, witty new series with an irresistible premise told from the delightfully engaging point of view of Romeo and Juliet s clever, rebellious, fiercely independent daughter, Rosie Montague. Fun, funny, charming, and absolutely delightful. If you re looking for a novel to sweep you away and lift your spirits, look no further. KRISTIN HANNAH, #1 New York Times bestselling author Once upon a time a young couple met and fell in love. You probably know that story, and how it ended (hint: badly). Only here s the thing: That s not how it ended at all. Romeo and Juliet are alive and well and the parents of seven kids. I m the oldest, with the emphasis on old a certified spinster at twenty, and happy to stay that way. It s not easy to keep your taste for romance with parents like mine. Picture it constant monologues, passionate declarations, fighting, making up, making out . . . it s exhausting. Each time they ve presented me with a betrothal, I ve set out to find the groom-to-be a more suitable bride. But their latest match, Duke Stephano, isn t so easy to palm off. The debaucher has had three wives all of whom met unfortunate ends. Conscience forbids me from consigning another woman to that fate. As it turns out, I don t have to . . . At our betrothal ball where, quite by accident, I meet a beautiful young man who makes me wonder if perhaps there is something to love at first sight I stumble upon Duke Stephano with a dagger in his chest. But who killed him? Half of Verona had motive. And when everyone around the Duke begins dying, disappearing, or descending into madness, I know I must uncover the killer . . . before death lies on me like an untimely frost.
