Pero como heredero de la familia Montesco, se espera que olvide sus sueños artísticos y preserve el honor de la familia; en especial, en lo que respecta a la centenaria enemistad con los Capuleto. Y lo que más le se espera que se case con una joven de buena familia. Sin embargo, cuanto más se relaciona con posibles candidatas, más le cuesta mantener oculto su mayor solo se siente atraído por otros chicos. En un intento de olvidar sus problemas, Romeo y su primo se cuelan furtivamente en una fiesta de los Capuleto. Durante un encuentro casual, conoce a Valentino, el chico más atractivo y amable que jamás haya visto. Y, para su sorpresa, puede que Valentino sienta lo mismo por él. Así da comienzo un tierno romance que los jóvenes deben ocultar a sus respectivas familias y amigos, mientras sueñan con vivir en un mundo donde puedan estar juntos. A medida que el conflicto entre los Montesco y los Capuleto se intensifica, Romeo y Valentino tendrán que enfrentarse al peligro de perderse el uno al otro para siempre; si no es por culpa de la sociedad, quizás por el filo de una espada"--
"Verona, Italy. Seventeen-year-old aspiring artist Romeo dreams of a quiet life with someone who loves him just as he is. 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 also 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. In an attempt to forget his troubles for just one night, Romeo joins his cousin in sneaking into a Capulet party. During a fateful encounter in the garden, he meets the kindest, most beautiful boy he's ever encountered, and is shocked to learn he's Valentine, the younger brother of one of his 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, each of them longing for a world where they could be together without fear. And as the conflict between the Montagues and Capulets escalates 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 a blade." --
