After Cassie gets heartbroken by her former lover, she decides to focus more on her studies to get over her disappointment. Subsequently, she develops a soft spot for Xuan Zhang, a fellow student who surpasses her intelligence. Her love for him increases even more when he rescues her from a disastrous predicament and risks his life to save hers. The world seemed to be against their love because they were of different ethnicities. To worsen matters, the love of her life, Xuan, gets diagnosed with a deadly disease, and his day of expiration seems to draw nearer as the world goes by. Friends, including the one nearest to her, try to discourage her from accomplishing her set purposes with Xuan. But will their love thrive in a society that seems all too suffocated for their love to ripen and blossom? Read this fascinating story to find out.
 
The book Fated to Love You by Kayla Cunningham keeps readers in suspense as the book approaches its climax. It depicts the struggle between two lovebirds whose worlds and unseen forces are bent on separating. I'm moved to pity to see the catastrophes endured and the stigmas they overlook so their happiness can reach its peak. Temptations and discouragement have battled their way into the couple's undying affection for each other, but the hate they've received is just stepping stones to their accomplishment. The book discloses the fundamental mystery of where the very core of love germinated from and the elements that keep it prevailing, despite the odds. The book shows that there is always room and hope for frantic affection to sprout undisturbed.
 
The portrayal of Xuan and Cassie's determination to navigate their love through stormy seas is what I find the most endearing. They were so attached that even what fate had in store for them could not deter their love for each other. Xuan saw the catastrophe that lay in store for him, yet he didn't let his body's susceptibilities obstruct his provision of sufficient love for the one dearest to his mind. Cassie stood her ground for Xuan and retorted unflinchingly at those mocking Xuan's situation. He had been diagnosed with a terminal disease and had asked Cassie to go and find happiness with someone else. I was afraid that she was going to leave him and return to her previous sweetheart, but I was glad about the way things ended for her and Xuan; she was able to make one of his biggest dreams come true, and she received the surprise of her life from him even though he was bedridden.
 
There is nothing I disliked about the book; I marveled at the way Xuan and Cassie's love thrived in a society full of racial discrimination. Though Xuan had felt the racism, Cassie didn't let the prejudice get to him and reassured him of her interminable love. I was on the edge of my seat when I learned her ex, Rayan, was trying to coax his way back into her life, but I was pleased to see how she handled it maturely. This made me admire and respect her.
 
The book is exceptionally well edited; I completely enjoyed this wonderful novel, and so I'll rate it five out of five stars. Also, the author's creativity in exploring strong themes in this engrossing tale made it possible to award the book a perfect rating. I recommend this book to lovers of romance fiction and also to persons whose relationships may be going through certain upheavals.

A heartbreak is always something that people deal with differently. How we deal with such issues is really dependent on how we accept them.

This book reminds me of a movie I watched, but I can't remember the name. They both had diseases that had no cure, but finally, the girl's medications worked, and her lover didn't. I hope their love flourished.

The title and story reminds of a Korean drama and I have to say that's what came in mind when I saw the title. I am intrigued to find out if it is similar or not. Seems like a good book and cannot wait to read it!
