The newcomer has been described as a free spirit who enjoys playing mind games and living life dangerously. And Stause, 34, revealed that she’s more than ready to take on the wild role.

“WOW,” Stause wrote on Twitter following the casting announcement. “Do you guys know how to make a girl feel special! I grew up watching Y&R w/ my mom & I can’t tell you what this warm welcome means.”

The actress has also appeared on “Mistresses,” “Luke 11:17” and the TV mini-series “Misguided.”
