About this ebook
Two households. One ancient grudge. Can two star-crossed lovers bridge the gap between them?
Once upon a time…
Julia has one goal: to protect her mother's lands. But the land itself is dying, beset by salt and the encroaching sea, and she's forced to head home to admit her failure. Until she meets a miller who might know a way to save her stricken estate. There's only one problem – Romein is the son of Count Montague, her mortal enemy.
Romein returned home with a mission from the Queen – to save the country from flooding. But every tactic he tries seems doomed to failure. Until a girl he hasn't seen for seven years falls at his feet. Lady Julia Capet could be a dangerous distraction, or she might hold the key to perfecting his plan.
Can two star-crossed lovers defy fate, find happiness and save the country?

I loved this book! The story is a bit of a cross between The 3 Billy Goats Gruff and Romeo and Juliet, but it also has a lot of unique parts that fit in as well. Unlike Romeo and Juliet, this is a true romance, complete with a happily ever after. I loved seeing some of the crossover with other characters, places, and events I’ve read about previously in the series. Although this is a standalone story, I’m eager to see what else happens in future stories in this series.

Cross is a mashup retelling, I honestly did not remember much of Three Billy Goats Gruff other than a bridge and brothers so that part is a little lost on me but did not take away from me enjoying this book because the Romeo and Juliet retelling that is also included was amazing and it had a HEA!
