An compelling story of fast and passionate love between two people who are so different yet so similar in so many ways.
Cleo meets Frank New Year's eve, by June they are married for the wrong and right reasons. This is their story, and the story of the people that are affected by their actions.
I fell in love with this book in the first chapter. The characters are real and raw with flaws, fights, and situations that just seem normal.
Cleopatra and Frankenstein explores the complexity of being a person with flaws, being in love, lust & marriage when your life before 'This Person' is messy at best.
