YA
Jay turns Shakespeare's play on its head in this contemporary paranormal romance. Romeo and Juliet are revealed to be mystical spirits--and immortal enemies--doomed to eternal conflict as each is repeatedly reincarnated. As their struggle plays out, the characters discover they can make different decisions about forbidden love and self-sacrifice, all in a swoon-worthy manner.
