Some loves are not made
to last . . . Like Romeo and Juliet, Heloise and Abelard were doomed
from the start, and their romance was destined to pass into history. Yet
when sixteen-year-old Callie Martin discovers a diary hidden within an
antique book, their story—and hers—takes on another life. For the diary
leads Callie to the brilliant and handsome August, who is just as
mysterious as the secret the diary hides. Their attraction is
undeniable. As the two hunt down the truth behind the diary—and that of
Heloise and Abelard’s ancient romance—their romance becomes
all-consuming. But Callie knows it can’t last . . . love never does.
Will their love that burns as bright as a shooting star flame out, or
will these star-crossed lovers be able to defy history?
