Broadway Books Miss Unlikely: From Farm Girl to Miss America( Betty Cantrell Maxwell )

From a double-wide trailer on a farm in Georgia to the 2016 Miss America pageant, Betty Maxwell was not a likely contender for the crown. Few people, least of all Betty, thought she’d bring home the title, but she won by being herself—mistakes and all.

Miss Unlikely is an inspirational book that takes you through Betty’s unconventional childhood, the surprising pageant journey, an incredible year as Miss America, a fairytale wedding, and everything in between. She offers wisdom on school, boys, self-esteem, choices, disappointments, insecurities, mentors, cyberbullies, loss, and more. Behind-the-scenes moments and previously untold stories show how her faith and family carried her through.

Betty’s personal and sincere account will remind you that the only way to get where you want to go is through God’s unique plan. Find confidence in being you and turn your dreams into reality.
