I cannot believe the people who are giving this book one star and then announcing that they haven't read this book nor do they intend to. That is not what a review is. A review is what you express after you are done READING a book. If you read this book, you know that Michael has done exactly the opposite of what Edward Klein did in "The Kennedy Curse" which was to trash Carolyn Bessette. He especially goes out of his way to refute Klein's claim that Carolyn was addicted to coke. I can't understand the vitriol in some of these reviews; what has Michael Bergin done to earn such enmity?

Bergin offers up Carolyn as beautiful, funny, bright and I believe that he really loved her. He tries to explain away her flaws by calling them abandonment or commitment issues; nowhere in this book does he lambast Carolyn for hiding their relationship, refusing to commit or anything else a lesser man might have done.

I also found Michael to be self-effacing and possessed of a great sense of humor (his meeting with Jack Nicholson made me laugh out loud). I was also interested in reading about his life as a male model.

I, too, watched his interview on A&E and I thought he came across as honest and candid and felt that his grief was real. Of course, his detractors found it false - nothing this guy does is going to be correct in their minds

I see a lot of people who HAVE READ THIS BOOK are rightfully giving it good reviews. Don't listen to those with an unexplained ax to grind. If you are curious about the relationship between Michael Bergin and Carolyn Bessette, this is certainly the book to read and definitely better than "The Kennedy Curse."

I give this a thumbs-up and wish Michael and his family happpiness and peace.

Michael Bergin comes across as very genuine and sincere. He eloquently describes his insatiable desire for Carolyn Bessette and the turbulent relationship they shared. Together, they shared great joy and heartbreaking pain.

One can only conclude that there was definitely a deep love, a strong connection, and an everlasting bond between Carolyn Bessette and Michael Bergin. Definitely worth reading!!

Has this guy done ANYTHING since Baywatch??? His writing style is that of a third grader...and how dare he come out with this gossip AFTER she's dead? Who can defend her? If what this brainstem says in the book IS true, he looks like a human bobo doll being used by a very troubled, yet smart as a fox woman.
She was no dummy.
This dude needs to get a life. I'm so ashamed to say I let my human curiosity get the best of me and read this trash.
Sorry John.......Sorry Carolyn.
