À propos de cet audio
“Good sarcastic banter, discussions of top comedians and enough food descriptions to make me salivate.”—USA Today
Two down-on-their-luck comedians embark on a road tour and find more than a few good laughs on the way.
Olivia Vincent dreams of stand-up comedy stardom. Bustling around a busy Manhattan office by day and hustling from club to club by night, she can’t catch a break. Work is falling through the cracks, and after ditching a major client to make a performance, Olivia gets the boot.
Determined to pursue her dreams, she snags an audition in Los Angeles for a coveted spot on late-night TV. But the only way to get there is to join seasoned stand-up Nick Leto on a cross-country road tour. She agrees on one condition—no funny business.
Icky comedy condos, tiny smoking nightclubs, and Nick’s incessant classic rock radio are a far cry from life on the Upper East Side. Reality sets in, and Olivia wonders if she can hack it in showbiz or if she’s just a hack. As Nick helps Olivia improve her act along the way, sparks begin to fly and ignite what they thought was an impossible flame. Maybe being stuck with Nick in a Jeep isn’t so bad. As long as it doesn’t get in the way of Olivia’s actual funny business.

“Brimming with pop culture references and hilarious situations, No Funny Business is a smart, sharp look at the world of stand-up comedy. It was a joy to watch Olivia learn that the only thing riskier than stepping on stage is falling in love."—Kerry Winfrey, author of Very Sincerely Yours
"Don't let the title fool you. There's plenty of funny business in No Funny Business, but like the best stand-up acts, there's also a whole lot of heart. Readers will cheer for Olivia as she follows her own heart for a chance at the life and love she truly deserves...without ever having to fake it."—Meredith Schorr, author of As Seen On TV
“As expected for a comic novel, there are laughs on every page; like Delia, this is a quick read perfect for the beach.”—Booklist
