It makes me laugh when I hear folks think Molly and I rushed into things too fast, spouting that we couldn’t possibly have felt what we did for each other in such a short space of time. Now hear the story from his lips: unbarred, uncensored, and raw to the bone. You met Romeo Prince in the Amazon USA Today bestselling novel, Sweet Home. Sweet Home was faced, filled with twists and turns and the worst part of the book was that I was constantly waiting for that other shoe to drop, because hello!?, it’s based on Romeo and Juliet! But even with all the emotional upheaval, I LOVED THIS BOOK! Sweet Rome (Sweet Home, #1.5) And although their relationship was fast, it seemed realistic with Rome being as alpha as he is. Sweet Home was faced paced, but when it slowed down, it was to enjoy the slow and romantic parts of Rome and Molly’s relationship. It just so happened that Rome and Molly had the makings of their own Romeo and Juliet story: a conniving ex-girlfriend, horrid parents, a lot of insecurities and more. While there were a lot of similarities and plot consistencies to the original Romeo and Juliet, Rome and Molly had their own story to tell. The best part of Sweet Home, I think, was how Cole owned her own version of Romeo and Juliet.

But are they destined to live the fate of their namesakes?

And with their whirlwind courting comes a true love. I was instantly invested in Molly’s (last name Shakespeare) story from the prologue, but once we meet Rome–short for Romeo– phew, that just notched the story up high in my eyes!īut when they meet something magical happens, they find a kindred soul. See Possible Triggers for Abuse and OTT sad parts.Does have a separation between the Heroine and Hero.No descriptive sex scene with OW/OM (the Heroine sees the Hero pretend to be together with his ex-girlfriend to appease his mother–the OW kisses him).
