All You Can Heat

Summer on the soaps means one thing and one thing only: All of their hottest plots are going to boil over. Keep scrolling for a preview of the twists that will leave you tangled in knots!

Decisions, Decisions

We’d wager a whole closet full of Forrester Creations that Bold & Beautiful is going to have Ridge dump Taylor again and run back to Brooke, only to have her dump him before Nick leaves.

Head Case

Beyond the Gates’ Ted knows better than to get mixed up with Leslie again. But when Nicole shuts down his reconciliation attempts once and for all… well, he may not be thinking straight.

Good Luck, Babe

Young & Restless’ Cane may be longing to reunite with Lily, aka the one who got away. But as often as he hurt her, she’s sure to try to be the one who stays away — with Damian’s help!

The Green-Eyed Monster

Mourning Days of Our Lives’ John, Marlena will need her nearest and dearest more than ever. But a jealous Kate may have a hard time sharing Roman’s attentions with his former wife.

The Truth Hurts

General Hospital has set up Willow for the ultimate rude awakening when she discovers what a scuzz Drew really is. Wanna bet the big reveal comes at their wedding?Bonjour!

Bold & Beautiful is setting up a tense workplace with Steffy championing Daphne’s return. Anybody else suspect that she’ll be showing up in maternity clothes thanks to an off-screen tryst with Carter?

Parting Is Such Sweet Sorrow

Beyond the Gates’ Dani and Andre are at last bringing their relationship into the light… where they are bound to realize that half the fun was sneaking around. Watch for them to shake hands and part as friends.

Strange Bedfellows

Fans of Young & Restless’ “Teriah” are sure to freak. But with Mariah having split from Tessa, the singer is sure to go a little too far with pal Daniel in hopes of easing her pain.

Parental Guidance Suggested

Though Days of Our Lives’ Johnny and Chanel aren’t adopting Sophia’s baby anymore, you wait: The couple are still going to wind up with the child — oddly, thanks to Melinda.

The Ultimate Comeback

How will General Hospital return Kelly Thiebaud to the canvas? That remains TBD. But thanks to Kathleen Gati’s tease, we have a happy hunch that the Emmy winner will be playing Britt once again.

Today’s Special: Divorce

Bold & Beautiful had Deacon overlook a lotta sins to marry Sheila. He’s hardly likely to forgive and forget the fact that she lied about keeping in touch with Luna. Maybe Poppy could mend his broken heart?

Sisters Are Doing It for Themselves

Beyond the Gates’ Kat is set to spring a romantic surprise on Tomas. But he may have a shock for her, too: Eva’s not the only other woman with whom he’s been flirting. Will the sibs team up to teach him a lesson?

While the Cat’s Away…

Young & Restless’ Claire isn’t likely to stray with Holden, as charming as he is. But don’t be surprised if former playboy Kyle accidentally falls into bed with Audra while they’re in Nice.

The Honeymooners

Days of Our Lives’ Paul and Andrew are about to tie the knot. Dare we hope that we get the wedding present? In other words, that they decide to stick around Salem for the long haul.

Wife Swap

General Hospital has put Portia and Curtis’ marriage on life support — just when he and former spouse Jordan are spending an awful lot of time together. Coincidence? We think not.

Wriggle Out of *This* One

Bold & Beautiful is bringing the walls closing in on Luna, thanks to the sting operation Will spearheads this week. But though the double murderess is down, we wouldn’t count her out.

Pregnant Pause

Beyond the Gates finally stuck a fork in Derek and Ashley’s saccharine relationship. But it may not be as over as we’d like, because her little pukefest suggests that she may be expecting.

Battle Stations

Young & Restless’ Victor is waging a whole bunch of wars at once. Could that leave him vulnerable to an attack by Cane? Maybe The Mustache is finally gonna lose a battle! (Not likely, considering his track record.)

That’s All, Folks

Days of Our Lives’ Cat had better enjoy this next stretch with Chad, because she seems destined to lose him. Not only does Billy Flynn have a high-profile new role, but Cat’s ties to the ISA may be one secret too many for Chad.

The Mother of All Shocks

General Hospital has set up Carly for one heckuva jaw-dropper when she discovers that her beau Brennan has put her daughter Josslyn to work as a JV WBS agent.

Bye On Fashion

Jacqueline MacInnes Wood’s maternity leave should be starting any second now. Will Bold & Beautiful let Steffy just slide onto the backburner… or will she become Luna’s latest victim?

Mamma Mia

Beyond the Gates has laid the groundwork for a reveal that promises to upend a whole bunch of lives: that June is the mother of Martin and Smitty’s adopted twins, Tyrell and Samantha.

Once More, With Feeling

Young & Restless’ Nick is caught once again between Sharon and Phyllis. This time, however, expect him to have learned from the past and not surrender to temptation with Phyllis.

Child’s Play

With Days of Our Lives’ Rachel about to divulge a secret to Marlena, it could be that she saw Johnny take aim at EJ — or that she pulled the trigger herself (which would get the youngster shipped out of Salem to accommodate her portrayer’s new gig).

Out With a Bang?

With half of the characters on General Hospital — maybe three quarters! — wanting Drew gone, it’s just a matter of time before one of them takes a shot at killing the scumbag.

Party On

Young & Restless’ big Cane secret is at last out — and so are new pics from his reveal bash, including behind-the-scenes shots of the cast at play
