really an amazing story. This is the second book and I'm still absolutely blown away with Stacey Jay's imagination and incredible writing - that can turn an ordinary story that we all know (Romeo & Juliet) and give it such a unique and original twist.
it is falling in love all over again.

This was a great story in addition to Juliet Immortal. I loved Romeo's story and how he grew as a character. I was also surprised and pleased to see Juliet pop up into this story.

After the dramatic conclusion of Juliet Immortal, Romeo’s fate as a corpse left me hungry for more. This book is all about his chance at redemption, not only to make up for the past atrocities he committed but also a second chance at love. While he uses an act to court Ariel, feelings he had long forgotten begin to awaken inside of him.
This was a fairly good sequel but was a bit soppy in the romance side. I’m usually not one for a romantic heavy book, so I prefer Juliet Immortal because it was filled with much more action and danger. Juliet isn’t forgotten and has her own story in this book which was the most redeeming quality of the book. She brought more excitement than Romeo and Ariel’s story.
Outside a lot of the romance was the continued struggle between Ambassador and Mercenary. Nurse is the one running things with Romeo but something sinister about her methods had me on edge. With the return of the Friar, there was the darkness seen in the first book that clashed with the romantic side of it.
I enjoyed this book for the chance for Romeo to come to terms with his real self and finding a way to redeem himself. I made it through a lot of the mushiness because of the tidbits of Juliet’s struggle and the Friar’s presence so I did enjoy the book. If you’ve read Juliet Immortal, the conclusion is a good read but in all honesty, I will always ship the two original lovers.

I had this book sitting on my shelf for a year before I finally picked it up. I was very apprehensive about it because I did not like Romeo at all in the first book but I absolutely fell in love with him in this one. It was interesting to see a different side of Romeo in this one and to see his struggle with forgiving himself for his past. His character was so complex and I loved reading from his POV.
Usually I don't like it when books switch POVs back and forth but it really does work in this one, I was equally interested in Ariel's POV as I was with Romeo. I really liked Ariel's character (though she was crazy at times), I liked learning more about her and seeing her struggle with her dark side.
I really enjoyed Romeo and Ariel's relationship. It wasn't easy and they definitely had some serious bumps in the road and even though they did fall in love quick, it didn't feel quick. They only had 3 days together but it felt like they were together much longer and their relationship developed a lot slower (compared to Juliet Immortal). I also loved that they brought out the best in each other. Ariel brought out the good in Romeo, the sincere part of him and he brought out a much stronger side of Ariel.
The ending was really interesting and there's some twists that I didn't expect. I liked how things turned out and overall I really enjoyed this one, even more than Juliet Immortal.

This series was okay. It was definitely a cool retelling idea though.

I liked this sequel a little bit better than the first one. They are very enjoyable stories with a lot of twists and confusing loyalties.

"Romeo Redeemed" by Stacey Jay proved to be a delightful reading experience, reminiscent of my enjoyment of its prequel. Stacey’s skillful writing style effortlessly transported me into a world brimming with intrigue and emotion. Each page was infused with an irresistible allure, leaving me eager to uncover the unfolding narrative. The author's ability to craft compelling characters and maintain a tantalizing pace held my attention captive throughout. As the story reached its climactic conclusion, I found myself deeply satisfied, appreciating the meticulous attention to detail and the satisfying resolution that left me with a lasting sense of fulfillment.

I just loved how much Romeo was willing to sacrifice for Ariel! What I didn't like was how Ariel just left her mother and we don't get to know what really happened. But I still loved the love story!
