Summary
RITA Award Winner, Best Contemporary Single Title, 1994
This deliciously scandalous novel tells us the secrets of the reigning queens of television talk shows, Deanna Reynolds and Angela Perkins.
Their high-staked rivalry, fought with public smiles and private betrayals, is more than a ratings competition. It becomes an off-screen war when Deanna replaces Angela both on the air and behind the scenes with Angela's former lover after Angela moves to the big time in New York.
Angela's anger at her former protégé escalates from bitterness to vengeance. And an anonymous fan's admiration crosses the line into obsession. Only one woman will emerge with her life in this battle of ego and passion.

Over long, predictable story
There is confusion as to whether the main character is a hard nosed career woman, a fragile result of date rape, a melting shudder of desire for a man she can’t live without or an independent woman who backs off the second he says ‘my woman’
The narrator’s voice pitch goes up and down, up and down and I found it irritating. Also, with an English ear, having two main characters called Fran and Finn, the American accent makes them sound very similar so you are not sure who is pregnant and who is being too macho!
It was east to listen to and would probably make a reasonably entertaining holiday book.

Great story shame about the narrator
Read the book in my late teens and loved it, but barely got through the audio book, the narration was slow, with an annoying candesants to her voice, her masculine voices are lame and barely discernable from her female characters depictions.
