Romance Chick-Lit | Contemporary
From Emmy Award-winning actress Finola Hughes, a scathingly
funny novel that catapults readers into a soap opera. Finola Hughes brings her intimate knowledge of soap operas-
she starred as Anna Devane on "General Hospital" and
Alexandra and Anna on "All My Children"--to the page in
this scathingly funny novel that catapults readers into the
world of daytime drama. When British actress Kate McPhee
needs a life change, moving to Los Angeles to join the cast
of "Live For Tomorrow" is the answer. Like Alice falling
down the rabbit hole, though, she seems plunged into a
surreal world guided by nonsensical rules and populated
with outlandish characters. Her so-thin-they're-barely-
there co-stars seem to speak their own language and though
reigning diva Meredith Contini welcomes Kate to the set,
her claws are soon unsheathed when Kate's popularity
increases. As Kate battles on-set politics, her off camera life
unravels. She forgets to feed the cat and is late to every
important date. But she's really in trouble when she begins
to fantasize about her best friend's hunky husband. The
line between soap opera and real life blurs as Kate tries
to hold onto what is true.
