What ARE "Star-Crossed" lovers?

[Ann]

Does it matter if the series is historical or contemporary?

The Fallen Angels series by Mary Jo Putney, specifically Petals in the Storm

The Bridgerton series by Julia Quinn, specifically When He Was Wicked

[Marilyn]

Thank you for your suggestions!

Just cause this came up in another thread today... probably counts as star crossed lovers, but beware, only 6 black released... bk7 has been stalled for years so no final conclusion.

CM Owens has a thing for SC’ed and some that got away in most of her series.

This is first book in one series, but they all cover it.

Lovers whose relationship is thwarted by outside forces. The phrase came from "Romeo and Juliet."
