"Christopher Noxon's debut novel Plus One is a comedic take on bread-winning women and caretaking men in contemporary Los Angeles. Alex Sherman-Zicklin is a mid-level marketing executive whose wife's fourteenth attempt at a TV pilot is produced, ordered to series, and awarded an Emmy. Overnight, she's sucked into a mad show-business vortex and he's tasked with managing their new high-profile Hollywood lifestyle. He falls in with a posse of Plus Ones, men who are married to women whose success, income, and public recognition far surpasses their own. What will it take for him to regain the foreground in his own life?"--

Review of 'Plus One' on 'Goodreads'

Interesting and amusing. Not a bad read but the plot was a little thin. Interesting to find out who he's married to (it's not a spoiler but it's an easy google if you want to know) since I've liked her shows and I wonder how accurate his portrayal of her is. Makes the Figgy name make more sense!
