She's one of the most beautiful women ever to grace our television screens. She's best known for her roles as Audra Barkley in "The Big Valley" and Krystle Carrington in "Dynasty."  

In her new book, "Recipes For Life: My Memories," Linda Evans is sharing both recipes and candid Hollywood stories.

Linda is an Emmy-nominated, People's Choice and Golden Globe-winning actress who has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 

She says she'd been approached for years about doing a memoir but she'd also always wanted to do a cookbook. So, she decided to combine food and flashbacks in one book, even though it was a tricky method for writing. 

In the book, Linda doesn't shy away from even the difficult chapters in her life, including her parents' alcoholism and how she lost her husband to Bo Derek.

She says we all have problems and we all have the opportunity to overcome them, and she wanted to show people we're all the same, no matter what careers we choose. 

Plus, find out which celebrities' favorite foods she included in the book and why. 

She also shares what she's learned about aging and why she's so passionate about reaching out to women's groups to help women learn to put themselves first, particularly as they age.
