Patsy Pease Returning to 'Days of our Lives' as Kimberly Brady Donovan

Jen Lilley and Patsy Pease

Patsy Pease will be visiting Days of our Lives this month as Kimberly Brady Donovan, her first appearance since November 2013.

Warning: Spoilers ahead...

On Friday, December 19, Eve (Kassie DePaiva) asks Kim not to mention Shane's prognosis to Paige (True O'Brien).

On Tuesday, December 23, Kim tells Paige the truth about Shane, leaving her step-granddaughter stunned.

Eve made Shane's condition sound dire to keep Paige out of Salem, knowing he had some tests run that showed he was just fine.

Abby and Ben Hit The Sheets, Jennifer Slaps Eve On 'Days of our Lives' (Mini Recap)

Abigail was thrilled to show a shirtless Ben what learned from EJ and Chad.

On Thursday's episode of Days of our Lives (October 2, 2014), Abigail Deveraux (Kate Mansi) went to bed with Ben Rogers (Robert Scott Wilson) and, thanks to lessons learned during trysts with Chad (Billy Flynn) and EJ (James Scott), she knew exactly how to please her new man. But who taught Ben how to please his woman?

Elsewhere, Jennifer Horton (Melissa Reeves) slapped Eve Baron Donovan Deveraux Larson (Kassie DePaiva) after Eve attacked her family.  Eve's daugter, Paige Larson (True O'Brien), wanted sex from JJ Deveraux (Casey Moss) but bringing up his Aunt Kayla's (Mary Beth Evans) rape didn't put him in the mood.

Ouch! That had to hurt.

Meanwhile, Sami DiMera (Alison Sweeney) confirmed to her twin, Eric Brady (Greg Vaughn), that she loved EJ, while EJ DiMera (James Scott) confirmed the same news to his ex-wife, Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker). Sami and EJ seem so happy right now, doom is obviously just around the corner, especially since both actors are leaving the show. Is EJ going to die? Will Sami leave town? Does EJ fake his death so he can have a happy ending with Sami? So many questions, and it looks like October is the month we get the answers.

Watch Thursday's episode of Days of our Lives below:

Kassie DePaiva as Eve on Days of our Lives.

Kassie DePaiva continues to give an enthralling performance as Eve on Days of our Lives. But what exactly is Eve's last name?  Is she Eve Baron? Eve Donovan? Eve Donovan Deveraux? Eve Larson?  While we try to figure that out, Eve has lit a fire in Salem, and has even made Paige (True O'Brien) and JJ (Casey Moss) more interesting as a couple. I'm worried about those poor kids. Thanks, Kassie DePaiva!

'Days of our Lives' Promo: Emmy-Nominated Kassie DePaiva Debuts as Eve Donovan This Week! (Spoilers)

Kassie DePaiva debuts as Eve Donovan on Days of our Lives this week.

This week on Days of our Lives, popular actress Kassie DePaiva (One Life to Live, Guiding Light) makes her much-anticipated return to daytime as the new Eve Donovan on Days of our Lives.

Last week on Days, Paige (True O'Brien) told JJ (Casey Moss) that her mother was coming to Salem. It looks as if Eve is Paige's mother! With Jennifer's (Melissa Reeves) son dating Eve's daughter, sparks are sure to fly.

Poor Jennifer. Daniel (Shawn Christian) has had it with her, and Eve will apparently be needing Dr. Daniel's medical expertise. Jennifer knows better than anyone how turned on Daniel gets by his patients.

Days of our Lives recap for Wednesday, June 11, 2014:

Daniel (Shawn Christian) asks Jennifer (Melissa Reeves) if she really believes he wouldn't have told  Eric the truth about Nicole. Jennifer says she honestly believes if she didn’t tell Eric the truth, that he never would have found out. Daniel is shocked, but Jennifer says Daniel kept giving Nicole chances and that Nicole always finds a way to manipulate him  Daniel wonders if  Jennifer doesn't trust him enough to tell the truth. Jennifer says she does, but he has lied for Nicole before.  It's a pattern with him, he doesn't like to lie, but he does it if he feels it's for a good enough reason.  Jennifer continues on with her tirade claiming Nicole is manipulating Daniel, and that is another pattern and she is using her desperation to get Daniel to do things he wouldn't normally do. Jennifer says that Nicole hasn't changed and he doesn't realize the hold she has on him.  Daniel asks Jennifer if she thinks he is in love with Nicole, but Jennifer says of course she doesn't think that.  Seriously Daniel, it would never occur to Jennifer that a man

Jennifer loses her mind when she is confronted by Nicole.

Days of our Lives recap for Monday, June 9, 2014:
Nicole (Arianne Zucker) visits Jennifer (Melissa Reeves), and she is out for blood.  Jennifer claims she is worried about Rafe (Galen Gering) and Gabi (Camila Banus), and doesn't have time to talk with Nicole.  Nicole isn't letting Jennifer go anywhere.  Nicole tells Jennifer that by revealing her secret to Eric, she has destroyed everything for Eric and Nicole and the happiness they could have had together.  Nicole says she could have helped Eric and would have told him the truth if given a chance.  This sets Jennifer off and reminds me that her mother Laura was once institutionalized.
