Johnny Devine: Awards Beyond the Silver Screen

The Memoir of Johnny Devine received a rare FIVE GOLD Star Top Pick from Romantic Times, their highest rating. It also earned the Editor's Seal of Excellence, the first inspirational novel to receive this award. RT also awarded The Memoir of Johnny Devine BEST INSPIRATIONAL ROMANCE of 2015.

A Romantic Times editor writes:
“I am having a difficult time finding the words to describe exactly how much I loved The Memoir of Johnny Devine. Religion, particularly as a person’s saving grace, is a deeply personal and highly subjective topic. However, Camille Eide introduces the plot point with such sensitivity and respect that it’s easy to identify with the characters. I cannot tell you how much I loved reading about an educated, unmarried woman making her own way in the 1950s. In a time where women were expected to stay home, marry and take care of the household, our heroine Eliza is committed to her career and correcting social injustice. Her intelligence, sensitivity and grace immediately endear her to her new boss, the famous Hollywood heartthrob Johnny Devine. The most intriguing (and also disturbing) thing about this story is that despite the 1950s setting, the need for gender and racial equality as well as the ongoing witch hunt that is the Red Scare are very relevant today, in 2015, and I applaud Eide for being part of the conversation. She has managed to intertwine a beautiful love story, the desire to build a personal relationship with God and the necessity for social change into one truly fantastic read.” -Kristin Wise
