NOTES

"A Borzoi Book"--Title page verso

"A mischievous story of money, marriage, sex, and revenge unspools when a billionaire crashes his hot air balloon into the middle of a post-pandemic first date. Joannie hasn't been on a date in seven years when Johnny invites her to dinner. His house is beautiful, his son is sweet, and their first kiss is, well, it's not the best, but Joannie could convince herself it was nice enough. But when Joannie's childhood crush, a summer camp fling turned famous billionaire, crash lands his hot air balloon in Johnny's swimming pool, Joannie dives in. Soon she finds herself alighting on a lost weekend with Johnny the bad kisser, Jonathan, the billionaire, and Julia his beautiful but manipulative wife. Does Joannie want Jonathan? Or does Jonathan want his assistant, Vivian? Does Joannie want Julia? Or does Julia want a baby like Joannie's? A tale of lust and money and lust for money, Hot Air is as astonishing as it is blisteringly funny, a delirious, delicious story for our billionaire era"--
