Reviews
" Meant To Be is the most golden, heart-crunching, epic love story, which swept me away into another time and another world." --Sophie Kinsella "A dependably down-to-earth, girlfriendly storyteller." -- The New York Times "[A] modern-day Jane Austen." -- Vanity Fair "A sweet and sensible romance firmly placed in the real world . . . Meant to Be balances classic romance scenes with nuggets of history and nuanced takes on modern issues. . . . Giffin's writing is consumable and rich, balancing dialogue and descriptions to build a parallel world with convincing characters. Meant to Be proves you can have your romance and think deeply, too." --Associated Press "This lively page-turner is inspired by the courtship of John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy." --Elisabeth Egan, The New York Times "The novel strikes a careful balance between simply retelling the true story of JFK Jr. and his wife, Carolyn Bessette, and crafting an entirely new one.

Kennedy, Jr., and Carolyn Bessette in her absorbing new novel. . . . Giffin convincingly dramatizes the challenges the couple faces, inducing readers to invest in them and hope desperately for a happy ending." -- Booklist "Giffin's latest charts the course of true love between an American aristocrat and a troubled fashionista. . . .

- h***l (817)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseExactly as described. The colors and fabric are soft. Very nice top. There was something strange about the delivery. Not with the seller, but I kept getting messages that the package could not be delivered because the address was wrong. I’ve gotten messages like this before. I just ignore them because they’re scams. I don’t know who’s creating them, but they are what they are. Anyway, I eventually received the item, and the address was correct. I would purchase from this seller again.NWT Lucky Brand Floral Peasant Top Sz Large (#203866584320)
