STRONG recommend

Wow, this was a fascinating fictionalized, but very well-researched story of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis" life. Yes, I know it was fictionalized, but it gave me much insight into her life with Kennedy and Onassis.

Jackie was very artistic, creative, and cultured as we all knew. But, she was also very intuitive, bright, and read people well. Unfortunately, on many occasions, the Kennedy family did not listen to her advice which could have prevented disaster.

She had three seasons in her life - with Kennedy, with Onassis, and by herself working.

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. I look forward to any future works by this author as she spent a great deal of time to get this labor of love done correctly.

This book felt very inciteful and genuine. I've always admired Jackie and feel I know a little bit more about her than I did before. A great read.
