NATASHA SOLOMONS: FAIR ROSALINE
Westlands, Wheeldon Suite 1

Was the greatest love story of all time a lie? The bestselling author of Mr Rosenblums' List, Novel in the Viola and I, Mona Lisa, brings this 'un-telling' of the classic story alive.

Romeo Montague is handsome and charming and the first time he sees young Rosaline Capulet he falls instantly in love. At first Rosaline is unsure of Romeo's attentions but with her father determined that she join the nunnery, Romeo offers her the chance of a different life. These star-crossed lovers must keep everything hidden from her family. But when a destitute young girl appears, claiming to be carrying Romeo's child, and as whispers of more girls reach her ears, Rosaline starts to doubt all that she has been told. As Rosaline recognises Romeo for the villain he truly is, his gaze turns suddenly towards Rosaline's adored and beautiful cousin, thirteen-year old Juliet. Can Rosaline save Juliet, who falls under Romeo's spell just as quickly as she did? Or can this story only ever end one way?
