Secrets of a Soap Opera Diva - A Novel

From Victoria Rowell, one of the soap opera world’s most beloved actresses, a dishy novel that goes behind the scenes of the glamourous and drama-filled world of soap operas.

Calysta Jeffries is the hottest black actress in daytime and the diva of the soap opera world, known for her role as Ruby Stargazer on The Rich and the Ruthless.

After fifteen years, three returns from the dead, two failed pregnancies, one alien abduction, and overcoming retrograde amnesia, Calysta still hasn’t managed to snag the biggest award in daytime drama: the Sudsy. This year, she’s determined to have her moment but when Calysta’s onscreen/offscreen rival Emmy Abernathy wins the award for the fourth time, her true feelings for her costar slip out when she’s asked for a quote after the award show.

Ripped from the headlines of Soap Opera Digest and straight off the television screen, Secrets of a Soap Opera Diva is a “juicy, gossipy” (Library Journal), and thoroughly entertaining novel for new and longtime soap opera fans.
