KUZNIAR, Sunday Times bestselling author The Hundred Loves of Juliet is a timeless love story of love, loss and eternal hope that a curse can be broken and two lovers finally reunited. ...................................................... It happens every time she comes back into my life, a memory lingering from the first night we met, centuries ago. She has no idea who she is, of course. That her presence - or absence - in my life has defined my entire existence. I may go by Sebastien now, but my name was originally Romeo. And hers was Juliet. It''s a frosty fairytale of an evening when Helene and Sebastien meet for the first time. Except it isn''t the first time. You already know that story, though it didn''t happen quite as Shakespeare told it. To Helene, Sebastien is the flesh-and-blood hero of the love stories she''s spent her life writing. But Sebastien knows better - Helene is his Juliet, and their story has always been the same. He is doomed to find brief happiness with her over and over, before she dies, and he is left to mourn. Albrecht and Brigitta. Matteo and Amélie. Jack and Rachel. Marius and Cosmina. By any name, no matter where and when in time, the two of them are drawn together, and it always ends in tragedy. This time, Helene is determined that things will be different. But can these star-cross''d lovers forge a new ending to the greatest love story of all time?
