NEW YORK ā€“ From her childhood in Berlin, New Jersey, to her marriage to actor-producer Mark Consuelos, Kelly Ripa has a lot to talk about beyond her job as host of ā€œLive With Kelly and Ryan.ā€

Dey Street Books, a HarperCollins Publishers imprint, announced Tuesday that Ripa's essay collection ā€œLive Wireā€ will come out next year. According to Dey Street, the book will show what ā€œreally makes her tick" as she writes about marriage, motherhood and her career in show business, including her work on ā€œAll My Children,ā€ on which she and Consuelos both appeared.

ā€œWhether recounting how she and Mark really met, the level of chauvinism she experienced on set, how Jersey Pride follows her wherever she goes, and many, many moments of utter mortification (whence she proves that you cannot, in fact, die of embarrassment) Kelly always tells it like it is. Ms. Ripa takes no prisoners,ā€ the publisher announced.

ā€œSurprising, at times savage, a little shameless and always with humor, ā€˜Live Wireā€™ shows Kelly as she really is offscreen ā€” a very wise woman who has something to say.ā€
