Description: NEW YORK Times Bestseller He's American royalty. She comes from a troubled past. Is their love story meant to be? This lively page - turner (The New York Times) offers a nostalgic hopelessly romantic escape from the author of Something Borrowed and The Lies That Bind. I m a sucker for an iconic against - all - odds love story and Meant to Be truly delivers. Tia Williams author of Seven Days in June A chic history - inspired summer read that strikes a careful balance between simply retelling the true story of JFK Jr. and his wife Carolyn Bessette and crafting an entirely new one. Bookreporter The Kingsley family is American royalty beloved for their military heroics political service and unmatched elegance. In 1967, after Joseph S. Kingsley Jr. is killed in a tragic accident his charismatic son inherits the weight of that legacy. But Joe III is a free spirit and a little bit reckless. Despite his best intentions he has trouble meeting the expectations of a nation as well as those of his exacting mother Dottie. Meanwhile no one ever expected anything of Cate Cooper. She too grew up fatherless and after her mother marries an abusive man she is forced to fend for herself. After being discovered by a model scout at age sixteen Cate decides that her looks may be her only ticket out of the cycle of disappointment that her mother has always inhabited. Before too long Cate's face is in magazines and on billboards. Yet she feels like a fraud faking it in a world to which she's never truly belonged. When Joe and Cate unexpectedly cross paths one afternoon their connection is instant and intense. But can their relationship survive the glare of the spotlight and the so - called Kingsley curse? In a beautifully written novel that captures a gilded moment in American history Emily Giffin tells the story of two people searching for belonging and identity as well as the answer to the question: Are certain love stories meant to be?
