Yancy Harrington Braxton is a diva, or was once. She wants to get her status back and be in the limelight once again but she can't seem to get a break. She is performing in a few plays here and there but nothing like her first go round. She's on the road performing "Dream Girls" when her mother is released from prison. She shows up at Yancy's house (uninvited and unexpected) and turns her life upside down. She manipulates people and does what she has to do to get under Yancy's skin and make her life hard. Yancy has a secret that is revealed and of course her mother holds this over her head as well. Yancy has to figure out how to fix things and she needs the help of people she mistreated while her career was doing well. Will they help her or is the diva on her own? Will her mother succeed in ruining her life?
This book was okay. This is a continuation of an earlier novel by Harris but you don't have to read that first in order to know what's going on in this one. It started kind of slow but picked up once you could see all the things her mother was into. I probably wouldn't recommend it though.
