“Sharp, on-point writing immediately engages and makes it difficult to tear one’s attention away from this emotionally riveting novel. The romantic tension sizzles nearly from the beginning, and readers will often find themselves breathless from the sheer delight of it.”

“Camille has written another heartthrob of a novel, with an inspiring beat of true love, beauty, and grace. The Memoir of Johnny Devine takes us from the Golden Age of Hollywood through World War II and into the Red Scare of the early 1950s, as it weaves a story of both despair and redemption. It’s a page-turner—literally a one-sitting story that I couldn’t put down until the very last word!”

“The Memoir of Johnny Devine is one of those special reads you hope to find but rarely do. The power of this story drew me in and refused to release me. When I was forced to put down the book, the characters went with me, and I couldn’t wait to return to its pages. It is brilliantly written and felt as if every fragment of story and nuance of character were real. It did not feel like fiction. Truly a must read.”
