They were only kids.

Bogged down by the world around them, left with only one escape.

But still, just kids. 

*a modern retelling of  one  of The Bard's most famous tragedies*
---
Juliet Chang is 13 going on 14, and trapped. Between her overbearing parents and the upcoming trip to a strange land with an even stranger man on the horizon, she fears she will never have the childhood of which she has always dreamed. Time is ticking, and every decision she makes could either finally lead her to freedom, or to her doom. 

Romeo Morrison is 14 going on 15, and also trapped. His family's shady political dealings and a strict Catholic education hold him back from reaching his full potential. Though the terms and conditions of his confinement are far different from the Chang girl's, the lukewarm freedom he once had will soon turn into cold imprisonment due to a series of mistakes driven by fate.

It only takes one party for the two caged souls to meet. 

It all could have ended at that moment if it wasn't for their families' century long blood feud.

*contains mature themes such as death, violence, and suicide (not graphic)*
