I had my doubts about this storyline. As the Author's Note says at the back of the book, "Broaching the topic of daytime soap operas in any sort of positive light is a little tricky for a writer of Christian fiction." But I thought the author handled it very well. I like getting to know daytime diva Tabby Brockton. She made me laugh out loud at times.

Tabby Brockman is getting the break of a lifetime; her role on the daytime soap opera, (which supposedly killed her off), is bringing her back. Tabby figures this must be God's reward for her patience and good behavior. But life on "the set" is filled with all different kinds of people; some she gets along with and some out to do her harm. Oh, not to mention little children she must pretend are her kids on the set; which Tabby definitely needs help relating to. And the stage Dad (the childrens real father) is causing Tabby's heart to go pitter patter. There is so much gong on in this story, but the author kept me smiling most of the way through. Hope the next book in this series is just as good. ( )

Tabby Brockman is a rabbit working in a bookstore. Ok well she's a dressed up rabbit because her former job as a soap opera actress came to an end with her character's death. This can be blamed on jealousy by the head writer's husband being attracted to Tabby. She's getting by in life with her two best friends Dancy and Laini when she gets the call that she's been invited to rejoin the soap opera again. Now a Christian, Tabby has to make sure her character doesn't tread into dangerous waters, fend off unwanted suitors and try to stay on her toes with the hunky dad of her two soap opera kids. All in a day's work for an actress!

Reading this book introduced a first for me. Tabby is a soap opera actress. I have never read in a Christian fiction book about a Christian acting in a soap opera AND still being a Christian. Normally the character will be a non Christian who's an actor, then converts and drops out of acting all together. So this was a welcome relief to see how one can be a Christian and act at the same time. This was a really fun book to read. I enjoyed learning about the soap opera world especially since I was a closet All My Children fan back in the day. It was interesting learning about what goes on in the makings of a show and reading about the backstage lives of the actors. Tabby is a great character who made me laugh a lot with her antics. I do love how there are characters you can love to hate in this book and that Tabby equally shares the reader's dislike in them. It makes the characters more relatable when they are acting the way you would act in that sort of situation. And I loved her relationship with Dave. Loved reading all the drama that happened between the two! It's just really cool to read about people who are around my age doing things they love, having great shoes and clothes but still be really adamant about their faith. I loved all the characters in this book and I'm looking forward to reading about Dancy and Laini's stories as well. If you are a soap opera fan or a chick lit gal, pick up this book! ( )

This book was a pretty good read. I enjoy this author of Christian Fiction, because it is not too cheesy. It kept my attention for the most part and I related to the characters. ( )

I love the friendships in the story and am happy to know that there are other books telling her 2 friends stories as well. :) I also loved seeing how Tabby grew to love David's children and she really seemed to mature by the end of the story.. :) ( )

A Christian novel starring a soap opera star? It may seem odd, but the heroine of this novel is a suprisingly down to earth actress who lives with two roommates, struggles with her family relationships and with her romantic ones, and also with her relationship with God. This was an enjoyable read, and fans of contemporary romances and chick lit will enjoy it. ( )
