When Rob kisses her on their first date, Rose believes that everything is falling into place.

She is thrilled when school starts and their flirting continues. At the beginning of the summer, before Rob left for camp, Rosaline thought their relationship was evolving into something more. Rose has had eyes for her neighbor and best friend, Rob Monteg, for years and hopes he’ll finally return her feelings. When You Were Mine, a modern retelling of Romeo and Juliet, opens with Rosaline Caplet and her two best friends hoping for the perfect senior year.
