Summary:
Verona, Italy.
Romeo
dreams of a quiet life. But as the heir to the Montague family, he is expected to give up his "womanly" artistic pursuits and uphold the family honor -- particularly in their centuries-old blood feud with a rival family, the Capulets. Worse still, he is expected to marry a well-bred girl approved by his parents and produce heirs. But the more
Romeo
is forced to mingle with eligible maidens, the harder it is to keep his deepest secret: He only feels attracted to other boys. One night, he meets Valentine, the kindest, most beautiful boy he's ever encountered, and is shocked to learn he's the younger brother of one of
Romeo
's closest friends. He is even more shocked to discover that Valentine is just as enamored with
Romeo
as
Romeo
is with him. So begins a tender romance that the boys must hide from their families and friends, both of them longing for a world where they can be together without fear. And as the conflict between the Montagues and Capulets excalates out of control,
Romeo
and Valentine find themselves in danger of losing each other forever -- if not by society's scorn, then by the edge of the blade.
