From Library Journal:

One Hollywood blond bombshell of the 1950s and 1960s "tells all" in her sensational memoir of her bumpy film career and her strong attachment to her parents. The heart of her story is her passion for attractive, celebrated menRay Anthony (husband number two), Joe Namath, and Johnny Carson to name a fewand nothing is left to the reader's imagination as she retells her emotional and sexual escapades. This tell-all autobiography is classic Hollywood, and Van Doren has written a candid, entertaining story with apologies to no one. Virgina A. Doser, Saddleback Coll. Lib., Mission Viejo, Cal.
