On a show where the person who’s the best at sex wins it all, and people are willing to do whatever it takes to win, chaos ensues. Jo Firestone’s comedic sense entwined with her brilliant writing results in a hilarious and fun little mystery. The icing on the cake for me was the audiobook - I loved hearing Jo Firestone tell the story.
