At forty, darkly funny stand-up comic Shawn Sullivan is in the throes of a midlife crisis. His fear of commitment and success leave him ripe for a prank played by his misogynistic older brother, who uses a picture doctored to make Shawn look like a woman to set up a blind date between him and an attractive bisexual woman named Lane Gold. Lane, a thirty-five-year-old successful songwriter, has sworn off men. But the date turns into a stage performance as Shawn and Lane trade barbs. They are a hit comedy duo, and Shawn begs Lane to perform with him. She makes a deal with him: if he will attend gay and lesbian events to overcome his homophobia, she will be part of his comedy act. She also demands that Shawn help her and Dylan, her sixteen-year-old son, with his Eagle Scout project and various homophobic Boy Scout adventures. Over time, the three begin to develop into a family, much to Shawns surprise. But can he find it in him to commit a relationship, even one as unusual as his and Lanes? This humorous novel tells the tale of two people who become intertwined by fate and random chaos, reaffirming the almost universal quest for a commitment to true love.
