Story
At age 20, Molly Shakespeare knows a lot. She knows Descartes and Kant. She knows academia and Oxford. She knows that the people who love you leave you. She knows how to be alone. But when Molly leaves England's gray skies behind to start a new life at the University of Alabama, she finds that she has a lot to learn - she didn't know a summer could be so hot, she didn't know students could be so intimidating, and she certainly didn't know just how much the folks of Alabama love their football.

Story
It all started with a mysterious blue note sewn into a wedding dress. Something blue. I’d gone to sell my own unworn bridal gown at a vintage clothing store. That’s when I found another bride’s “something old.” Stitched into the lining of a fabulously feathered design was the loveliest message I’d ever read: Thank you for making all of my dreams come true. The name embossed on the blue stationery: Reed Eastwood, obviously the most romantic man who ever lived. I also discovered he’s the most gorgeous. If only my true-love fantasies had stopped there.

Story
Salome knows only one way to live - under Prophet David’s rule. In the commune she calls home, Salome knows nothing of life beyond her strict faith, nor of life beyond the Fence - the fence that cages her, keeps her trapped in an endless cycle of misery. A life she believes she is destined to always lead, until a horrific event sets her free. Fleeing the absolute safety of all she has ever known, Salome is thrust into the world outside, a frightening world full of uncertainty and sin; into the protective arms of a person she believed she would never see again.

Story
Célian Laurent. Manhattan royalty. Notorious playboy. Heir to a media empire...and my new boss. I could have impressed him, if not for last month's unforgettable one-night stand. I left it with more than orgasms and a pleasant memory - namely, his wallet. Now he's staring me down like I'm the dirt under his Italian loafers, and I'm supposed to take it. But the thing about being Judith "Jude" Humphry is I have nothing to lose. Brooklyn girl. Infamously quirky. Heir to a stack of medical bills and a tattered couch.

Story
It should have been easy. I needed the money. He needed a babysitter to keep him from snorting himself to death. I was cherry-picked especially for him. Responsible. Optimistic. Warm. Innocent. The worst part is that I should have known better. Alex Winslow. British rock star. Serial heartbreaker. Casanova with whiskey eyes. “Don’t get near the devil in a leather jacket. He’ll chew you up and spit you out.” Guess what? I didn’t listen. I signed the contract. World tour. Three months. Four Continents. 100 shows. My name is Indigo Bellamy, and I sold my soul to a tattooed god.

The game that dictates my life both on and off the field. But when the lines of our friendship become blurred, I worry she'll just be another casualty of my three-strikes rule. The rule I have to protect my money, my future, my heart. No girl has ever broken it. I've never wanted one to. Until now.

I shouldn't have remembered him. He was just a guy who walked through a restaurant. I didn't know his name. We never made eye contact. There was no connection between us at all. But I could feel him. The tingle down my spine. The command in his presence. The snap of tension in the air around him. That was the first time I saw him, and I was captivated.

It was just a typical Monday. Until the big boss asked me to make the pitch for a prospective new client. After two years on shaky ground at work because of my screw up, an opportunity to impress the senior partners was just what I needed. Or so I thought, until I walked into the conference room and collided with the man I was supposed to pitch to. My coffee spilled, my files tumbled to the ground, and I almost lost my balance. And that was the good part of my day. Because the gorgeous man who crouched down and looked at me like he wanted to eat me alive was none other than my ex.

Summary
You met Romeo Prince in the Amazon and USA Today best-selling novel Sweet Home. Now hear the story from his lips: unbarred, uncensored, and raw to the bone.
It makes me laugh when I hear folks think Molly and I rushed into things too fast, spouting that we couldn't possibly have felt what we did for each other in such a short space of time. I say, how the hell would they know? We made it, didn't we? She became my whole life, didn't she? And as for my folks not being real, being true? Tell that to me aged 10, 11, 12 - damn, all my bastard life - when I was never enough, when I was beaten until I bled for being too good at football and not being everything they'd dreamed: the perfectly dutiful son. Tell that to thousands of kids around the world getting wailed on by asshole parents for whatever stupid reason; tell them evil doesn't exist in their eyes.
F--k Romeo and Juliet. This is the story of me and my girl, from my lips. No mushy sentiment, no cheese, just the plain, hard truth, and, because I'm feeling generous, I'm going to let you in on more of our story, too.
Sweet Rome is a new adult companion novel to Sweet Home. It contains adult content, sexual situations, and mature topics. Suited for ages 18 and up.

OH NO!
I absolutely loved reading Sweet Rome on my kindle, so I thought its been a while I'll listen to it on Audible. What a mistake! No thought has gone into researching the accent for Molly. She is an educated girl from Durham, not a lady that has been brought up in Buckingham Palace or has a nanny called Mary Poppins. The accent that was used for Rome was spot on, but it pained me to listen to the story with the terrible female accents. Really disappointed and its such a shame as the story is fan-flippin-tastic.

Not Much New Here
I really like this series but it seems that about 90% of this book could be a ditto of Sweet Home. I would have enjoyed it more if Sweet Home was dual POV and 2 hours longer. I did enjoy hearing it from Rom's POV but I felt like I listen to the same story told twice. One good thing about that is that David Radford does a much better Rome than Anna Parker-Naples.
If you listened to Sweet Home you can skip this one. But I am really looking forward to the rest of the series.

Lovely book!
This audiobook was a delightful retelling of the first book in series Sweet Home, but from Romeo's point of view. I especially loved the last 3 chapters which showed the very happy ending. The narrator did a wonderful job with his southern drawl, sounding like he actually was from Alabama. Loved it!

Should've Listened to the Reviews
I broke my own rule. I read the reviews and then ignored them. And now I'm going to say what they already said.
This is mostly a retelling of the story in book one, just from Romeo's POV. I don't know about you but I don't want to re-read a story - even if another person is telling it. There was a bit more added into the end but I honestly don't see why this couldn't have been part of Sweet Home.
Love the characters but wish the author hadn't strung us into two books when she could've accomplished the same story using multiple POV in one book.

5 out of 5 Stars
Sweet Rome is book 1.5 in the Sweet Home Seires. I really enjoyed Sweet Rome and can't wait to continue with the series. I loved Rome and Molly. Sweet Rome is Rome's POV from Sweet Home. Sweet Rome does have some new content too.

5 Crazy Ass Must Read/Listen Stars!!!!!
I usually don't like to read the retelling of a story in the male POV but this one is the best I have read/listened to in a long time. It was great to get Rome's side of the story and to hear his feelings and what was going on with him.
I can't say this enough. Tillie Cole is amazing! The versatility with which she writes is awe inspiring. She has quickly become a top favorite of mine and continues to move up on my Crazy Ass Stalking List.
I loved David Radford as the narrator. He did an amazing job with all the characters, accents and all.
I look forward to delving into Lexi and Austin's story next in Sweet Fall.

Save your money/credit
Save your money/credit, the first 32 chapters is a recap of what occurred in book 1 but only from Romeo’s POV. Therefore, you only get 7 chapters of new info. What a disappointment and waste of money.

Horrible Narration
I read Sweet Home and Sweet Rome first, the story is okay if you are looking for something to just keep you occupied.
David Radford has ruined the character of Rome, he doesn't sound like the broody masculine football jock that is portrayed in the book.

Again this book is awesome if you enjoy reading the "other side" of books you previously read. The performance is awful. I couldn't even listen to it. Another read only for me.
