Julie and Romeo


Jeanne Ray is an author you don't want to miss if you like romantic comedies, especially for older couples. This is a twist on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. The two main characters know that their families have always hated each other, but they don't know why. And they don't know why they should continue the family tradtion, but their families have other plans. It's cute, children trying to twart their parent's love plans.
The author, Jeanne Ray, is a nurse in Nashville, Tennessee, and mother of award winning Ann Patchett. This is her first novel, written after she has turned sixty herself, and doesn't feel over the hill. So she writes "a story about two vital, attractive individuals over sixty who fell in love."
