She was Joseph and Rose Kennedy's favorite daughter — vivacious, beloved by British society, and the most naturally charming of all nine Kennedy children. But when Kathleen "Kick" Kennedy fell in love with a Protestant aristocrat during World War Two, her devoutly Catholic mother threatened to disown her entirely. She married him anyway. Four months later, he was dead. And when Kick found love again with another man her family couldn't accept, it would cost her everything. This is the story of the Kennedy daughter history forgot.
