Prince of Shadows by Rachel Caine
A thrilling retelling of Shakespeare’s star-crossed tale of Romeo and Juliet, from the New York Times bestselling author of the Morganville Vampires series.
Everyone knows Romeo and Juliet, but no one knows it from the perspective of Romeo’s cousin, Benvolio Montague. In the Houses of Montague and Capulet, there is only one goal: power and Benvolio knows it. The boys are born to fight and die for honor and—if they survive—marry for influence and money, not love. The girls are assets, to be spent wisely. Their wishes are of no import. Their fates are written on the day they are born. Benvolio knows all of this, but a rebellion still lives inside him. At night, he is the Prince of Shadows, the greatest thief in Verona—and he risks all as he steals from House Capulet. In doing so, he sets eyes on convent-bound Rosaline, and a terrible curse begins that will claim the lives of many in Verona and is bound to rewrite their fate forever. Full of action, suspense and magic, you’ll fall in love with this well-written retelling.
