Publisher's Summary

Megan Harper is the girl before...just like Rosaline from Romeo and Juliet. Every one of Megan’s relationships has ended the same way - her ex replaces her with someone perfect. But instead of crying over every breakup, Megan spends her time on her two passions: pursuing her next fling and directing theater.

She hates the spotlight, and she’s hoping to fulfill her college program’s acting requirement in the smallest role possible. But then, Megan’s theater teacher casts her to play none other than Juliet in her school’s production of Romeo and Juliet - and she meets Owen Okita, an aspiring playwright. In exchange for Megan’s help writing a play, Owen agrees to help Megan catch the eye of a hot hipster stagehand.

Between rehearsing and contending with her dad’s plans to move with Megan’s pregnant stepmom to New York, Megan begins to realize Owen - thoughtful, unconventional, and utterly unlike her exes - might be the Romeo she never expected. Better yet, with him, she might finally be a Juliet

Performance was great but story was Meh - DNF

I really wanted to like this story and tried to give it a chance - I even read/listened until chapter 18 but unfortunately, I didn't find the story or characters likeable.

*SPOILERS AHEAD*

Some reasons why this story wasn't for me:
1) while being sex-positive is good; given the story arc, I don't think it works with this story line where the heroine is obviously seeker a closer connection but is confusing sexual intimacy with emotional intimacy - I am not sure it sends the right message to the target audience;
2) while IRL, cheating does happen & we should not judge because at times, you can't help who you love and real life is messy but I just once again think there are too many raw elements to this YA romance - it felt icky and I couldn't really get into the romance when it's built on the foundation of lies/half truths

I think I will return this book
