Rose is devastated over losing Rob to Juliet.

Everyone knows the story of Romeo and Juliet, but what about Rosaline? You know, the girl Romeo loves before he falls for Juliet?

Rosaline knows that she and Rob are supposed to be together and when he finally kisses her for the first time, it's perfect. Rosaline thinks her senior year will go exactly as she dreamed it would be. Then Juliet, Rose's cousin whom she hasn't seen in almost ten years, moves back to town. The two used to be best friends but now Juliet hates her and even worse...has her heart set on Rob.
