Synopsis

A writer who craves a real-life happily ever after and a gruff fisherman who doesn’t believe in them find out they’re part of the greatest love story of all time.

“Cleverly imagines the epilogue Romeo and Juliet didn’t get to have, and how curses can be blessings in disguise.”—JODI PICOULT

A POPSUGAR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

After a bad breakup, Helene Janssen runs away to Alaska to find some peace and quiet. She’s been dreaming up bits and pieces of a novel for years and hopes to finally have time to write it.

On her first night there, Helene meets Sebastien Montague, a crab fisherman who looks exactly like the hero in the book she’s working on. But how is that even possible?

Sebastien seems to recognize Helene, too, but he lies about it and brushes her off, even though their chemistry is immediate and undeniable.

This is because their love story defies the ages: She is Juliet, reincarnated, and he is Romeo, lost in time. And if Helene can convince Sebastien to give her a chance, maybe this time they can rewrite their ending and find a true happily-ever-after.

Goodreads review by Darla on August 03, 2023

And here is a truth I now know: Every woman deserves to be wooed like Juliet, cherished like a queen, revered like a goddess. Helene imagines the perfect Romeo as she plays the part of Juliet. She names him Sebastion. To deal with grief over losing her father she writes historical vignettes featuring......more

Goodreads review by Taylor on July 11, 2023

I'm sorry, but this was... absurd. Here's what I'm gonna say: I didn't mind the premise, but the writing was not there for me. This is a YA author's debut adult novel, except it reads like it was definitely conceived of and written as a YA novel. Which is not an inherently bad thing, until you're wri......more
