Tabby is a down and out soap opera actress who has been struggling since her character was "killed" because of a misunderstanding with the head writer. But the great thing about soap's is that characters can come back to life any time. When Tabby is able to go back to the soap she thinks life will be much easier. She doesn't bargain for the same life problems that we have whether we're employed or not. Plus she has no knack with children at all and she has to be the on screen mom t

I'll start by saying that it doesn't usually take me more than a day to read a chick-lit...this one took...four?
I spent most of the book wanting to slap the characters...all of them. How can you be accidently dating someone? And not figure out how to tell him that you aren't dating? And have someone else that you like think you are in a relationship because you can't figure out how to break it to anyone that you aren't? I know that books don't need plausible plot lines to work.

Tabby Brockman is an actress. Fired from her soap opera, when the head writer, out of anger and jealousy, kills off her character, she flits from job to job always hoping for another break. When she's asked to rejoin the cast of the soap when her character makes a miraculous recovery after several years, she figures she has it made. Hilarity ensues when head writer doesn't like her, she's jealous of her on-screen rival, her mother drives her crazy and she has a crush on the father of her tele

Tabby Brockman is a young girl who is getting a second chance to reprise her role on the nation’s number-one daytime soap opera. Right away Tabby’s faith is tested. She knows that she wants to make a different in the field she loves – acting; but is she have the courage to stand up for her principles? Will she be strong? Will being on the show be different this time now that she is a “Christian”? The story is funny, witty and believable. Tracey shows what Tabby has to deal with as a member of th

It took me a little while to get into this one. It was a slow start, but a third of the way through I started to like it. It wasn't one of my favorite books, but it was an easy read. I don't care too much for the main character. I found her slightly annoying and naive. But the kids in the book were cute! I will look into other books by this author, but I won't buy them unless they are on sale.

This is another series from the 'Christian fiction' author Tracey Bateman, about 3 friends. There are 3 books, one from the perspective of each of the friends. I have read the first two, unfortunately the 3rd one is not on file at the library so I'm debating whether to buy it; they're just okay, not as good as the 'Claire' series.

I thought this was a really cute book. I would have rated it higher, but the main character annoyed me too much (a little too self-centered and without back-bone).

It got 3 stars instead of 2 because Ms. Bateman did a good job of making the reader care about the characters.

This book started out very slow. It was an OK read by the end. Not one of her best.

Decided not to read. Fine but just not interested in setting enough to read.

I liked it, it is a cute storyline. It is a good vacation book. It is a light read, had a few chuckles and smiles, good clean romance. This book was also a fun read and a good break from some of the more emotional books, so I look forward to the next one.

This is the first of 3 books about 3 friends and their life. This one is about Tabby, an actress on a soap opera and trying to live a Christian life despite what others are trying to do to her (sabatouge).
I read the 2nd book first and so this one seemed weird because I already knew what was going to happen, but it was still good to see how it all developed.
Definitely a good series!

A nice little romance set in the world of a soap opera actress. I wasn't sure I'd like it, since I'm not into the whole soap thing, but I read it in a day. It was a fun, clean, quick read.

Any Christian book that mentions Jimmy Choos is cool by me. I really enjoyed this book just as a funny, fast read with a lot of heart.

This was a fun, light-read. It is definitely not overtly Christian and is almost a stretch to call it Christian fiction...

Woman soap opera star is a Christian. Would have liked it better had she not been so much of a doormat.

It was entertaining for a day or two. If I find the second one easily, I'll read it.
