SYNOPSIS: Julie Jacobs inherits a key to a safety deposit box in Italy, and tries to unravel the mystery of her family history, and especially an ancestress upon whom Juliet of Shakespeare fame is based.
AUNT SHARON'S TAKE: This book came as a result of my trying to read more books geared toward adults, rather than young adults. Although I enjoyed the unraveling mystery at first, and got caught up in the history related in a parallel story, it soon became a little too much like a romance novel for me. It had a bit of sensuality, and language, if I remember right. I would be reticent to recommend it.
RATING: PG13 for sensuality
AUDIENCE: Adult
STARS: 3
