My Sweetest Escape

December 9, 2013
Cameron follows My Favorite Mistake with another take on the same formula: damaged coed meets equally damaged bad boy and finds steamy love. Only the names are changed. Eighteen-year-old Joscelyn Archer’s life takes a U-turn following a mysterious trauma. Dustin Sharp suffers a similar life-changing event. Now he’s committed to the straight and narrow, and to Jos. She’s been given a second chance to raise her GPA, but she has to transfer to the University of Maine, where she must endure the protective—and stifling—vigilance of older sister Renee. As she struggles with her personal demons, Dusty dogs her heels. If his chiseled good looks aren’t enough to seduce her, his smothering presence will cinch the deal. The biggest barrier? Who knows? Who cares? If it weren’t for Cameron’s catchy way with words, there would be little reason to keep turning pages. Agent: Kimberly Whalen, Trident Media Group.

Jos Archer used to be the girl with straight As, lofty goals, and a seemingly perfect life. But now, after one fateful night followed by months of self-destruction, Jos has no choice but to move in with her sister, Renee, and start fresh at a new university. Armed with a sharp tongue and blasting headphones, Jos does her best to push her sister and new housemates away. This tactic works for a while, but Jos begins to let down her defenses as she settles in and meets new friends, namely Dusty Sharp. She connects with Dusty in a way that she didn't think was possible after that dark night. Just as she and Dusty begin to realize their feelings for each other, Jos' past comes crashing to the forefront of her mind, and she doesn't know if she can move past it. My Sweetest Escape is an emotional and moving love story about finding your passion, being honest with your loved ones, and living life. Cameron's new adult romance is a genuine page-turner, drawing readers in until the very last page.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2014, American Library Association.)
