All over Hollywood, men are dialing O—for orgasms. Her steamy naughty talk fills them with lust and longing, and helps them perform like the studs they claim to be.

In truth, the industry''s favorite "erotic phone operatrix" is Nina Harte, a struggling actress who has put her career on hold so that her husband, Nathan, can pursue his own dreams of stardom. When Nathan''s career takes off, so does he, leaving Nina and their four-year-old son, Jake, for his diva costar, Katerina McPherson. Then "Kat ''n'' Nat" are crowned the media''s newest celebrity sweethearts, and Kat labels Nina an unfit mother in order to win custody of Jake, just so that she can have that highly-coveted celebrity accessory—an adorable child—sans any unsightly stretch marks.

The one person who does care about Nina is Nathan''s agent, Sam Godwin. In fact, he''s in love with her. And because he has both a heart and a conscience, Sam feels guilty for having put Nat in Kat''s path in the first place . . .

Then again, how will he feel when he learns that Nina and O are one and the same?

Every desperate housewife wants an alias. Donna Stone has one, and it happens to be government-sanctions. But when terrorism hits close to home, espionage makes for strange bedfellows -- and brings new meaning to the old adage, "Honey, I''m home..."

Lyssa Harper should have warned divorced DILF du jour Harry Wilder before she invited him to meet the mommies of the Paradise Heights Women’s League Board. At least he brought cupcakes. Since taking the former Master-of-the-Universe turned stay-at-home-single-dad under her wing, Lyssa has been his domestic Sherpa, teaching him the ins and outs of life inside their gated community. She never dreamed her friends would bombard him with casseroles, leopard-print bikini briefs, and offers to rearrange his kitchen cabinets.

But Harry’s presence soon stirs up trouble in paradise: if Harry and his wife, the neighborhood’s "perfect couple", can call it quits, what does that mean for other so-called happy couples, like Lyssa and her husband, Ted?

When Harry sets boundaries with his new fan club, he is exiled from the ladies’ clique. But Lyssa refuses to snub him. What she never expects is the explosive impact her ongoing friendship with Harry will have on her close-knit pals - and on her marriage.
