Christy Marlowe needs to get something off her chest. It is a tattoo spelling out the name of her ex-boyfriend, Benjamin, who is currently in juvie for murder. While in the plastic surgeon's office she meets Ben, a college freshman, who is there for the same reason she is. His ex-girlfriend's name is Christy.

Christy is heavily into signs and horoscopes, but she's leery about getting involved with another Benjamin – or Ben as he calls himself. However, when Ben agrees to go have his horoscope read, she's hooked.

Ben freaks out when he finds out why Christy and her ex broke up. He also doesn't realize he is dating a younger woman or that Christy's lies don’t end there. Star Crossed is a complicated, funny romance, sweet enough to be enjoyed by all.
