Thus with a Kiss I Die
by Christina Dodd
Thanks to Kensington and Netgalley for this advance copy!
This series is premised on such an interesting twist (Romeo and Juliet live and had a LOT of kids, the eldest can solve mysteries!) that I had to take it up. The second book finds Rosaline dealing with the consequences of what happened in the first book and now there are ghosts! I liked how the author takes the premise and runs with it and Rosaline is a fun character. At times I feel like the focus on her virginity, while era appropriate, isn't as funny as perhaps the author wants it to be. I'm hopeful future books move on and let Rosaline get married and run circles around Verona.
