Couverture de Julie and Romeo par Jeanne Ray

Résumé

Présentation de l'éditeur 'For never was a story of more woe, than this of Juliet and her Romeo.' Shakespeare might have seen his young star-cross'd lovers as a tragic pair, but 400 years later Jeanne Ray's Julie and Romeo are light-hearted, funny and sixty-something. Julie Roseman, a divorcee, and Romeo Cacciamani, a widower, own rival flower shops in Boston. They don't know what started the family feud generations before, but they have never questioned it. Until the fateful day when they meet at a business conference and inexplicably find themselves falling in love. But the path of true love never did run smooth, and with Romeo's feisty mother and a pack of fierce children coming between them, it looks like Julie and Romeo's tale will not end happily - or will it? Revue de presse 'I read this book curled up on the sofa when I had a rotten cold. Within minutes I was chuckling away to myself and felt my spirits lifting. It's warm and witty and a perfect read as Valentine's Day approaches.' Anne Timblilich, Editor of BCA's Moments Club 'Funny, moving and brilliant' Jill Mansell 'The path to true love never runs smooth in this funny, light-hearted, modern-day version of Romeo and Juliet' Best 'A sweet, funny tale of love among the OAPs' Woman's Journal 'A warm and witty tale of star-crossed love' Shine 'A light-hearted love story' Family Circle 'Jeanne Ray executes an original comic turn on the story of Romeo and Juliet' New York Times 'A clever, sexy, comic version of Shakespeare's love story ... Sure-handed and compelling' Kirkus Reviews Biographie de l'auteur Jeanne Ray is a nurse, wife and mother of the novelist Ann Patchett. She lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
