Riley McDonough and Juliet Carter were supposed to be enemies from the start. With friends and families as rivals, they shouldn't have even known what the other looked like. But it's for that reason that when they bump into each other across the country from their Orlando home, they're oblivious to the mistake. Nonetheless, they fall for each other, only to be ripped apart once senior year starts and the enemies are finallly pointed out. To get their mind off of each other, Juliet joins the school production of Romeo and Juliet, while Riley tries to focus entirely on the band's music and his schoolwork. But what they had won't just go away, especially since they had to see each other every day. It's Juliet who begins to realize that the words in her script are dancing off the pages and entwining into the story of her own life. As the tale escalates further, she's mostly hoping for one thing: not a single life to be taken. But what if that's the only way Riley and Juliet can be together? Are they actually willing to go along with what's written in the old play, or will they write their own tales?
