Rome and Jules by Tara Lain




Blurb:
Two werewolf households, both alike in dignity…. 

Rome Siracusa, youngest son of the alpha of the nouveau-riche Siracusa pack, wants to be a faithful son and pack member, but he’s got two big secrets. One, he’s blessed with enhanced hearing, vision, strength, and the ability to shift at will. Second, he’s gay, a fact he can’t admit to his deadly homophobic father. 

Rome crashes a party at the mansion of his pack’s greatest enemy, the ancient, pure-blooded Havillands. Jules, the gay son of the drunkard alpha, is being married off to a rich entrepreneur. Smitten and moved by the beautiful male’s plight, Rome tries to find a way to save Jules—while digging himself deeper into pack politics and navigating his own arranged marriage. Secrets climb out of the caves as the werewolf gods speak through the mouths of their children, and the two great families clash, suffocating the hopes of star-crossed lovers.

My review:
m/m werewolves
Tara Lain takes on Romeo and Juliet in her own inimitable style and rocks it out of the house. Rome and Jules are both gay, alpha and being forced into marriages they don’t want to people they don’t want for the good of their respective packs. Jules drunkard of a father has blown through pack monies till they are on the edge of bankruptcy and is forcing Jules to marry a guy with money he makes from less than legal means. Rome is being force to marry a woman from Jule’s pack so his father can take it over without a war. When Rome and Jules meet they fall in lust and are more determined than ever to thwart their respective alpha’s.
There is action, adventure, intrigue and love everything you need for a great story. Personally I liked this version of Romeo and Juliet much better as I do love a happy ending.
