Cash and Carrey

High school jock Cash Hamilton has almost everything: he's tall, handsome, a star football player and beloved by all the girls. The one thing he hasn't got is his namesake: Cash is dead broke. But a rich novelty manufacturer has a way out - all Cash has to do is date his hated school rival, brainiac Stu Carrey. Add to his problems an amorous snake, a New Age swami, an angry not-so-ex girlfriend, and a room of wombats, and you get a complete picture of dating in The Modern Age. Cash and Carrey is the first adult romcom by Bob Madison, author of the acclaimed young adult novel Spiked! Gay for pay has never been so much fun-or so dangerous. "Cash Hamilton, the hero of Bob Madison's new novel, is a 21st-century South-California Bertie Wooster. His special friend, Stu Carrey, is the son of a tycoon who manufactures gags and novelties--joy buzzers, whoopee cushions, wind-up plastic penises, and such. Cash isn't as genteel as Bertie, or as gentle, but he still gains entrée into some of the stately homes of Orange County. He's a witty and surprisingly likeable narrator, and his prose is as well-stocked with laugh-getters as Mr. Carrey's warehouse. Cash and Carrey is outrageous and extremely silly. It's also as sweet as it is funny." - Christopher Miller, award-winning author of The Cardboard Universe, Sudden Noises from Inanimate Objects, and, American Cornball. "If Dobie Gillis and Groucho Marx had a son it would be Bob Madison. Funny, silly, and funny." - Nick Santa Maria, comedian/author
