Summary

Debbie Dare has to come to terms with her sordid life in the adult-entertainment industy. Millions of men (and, no doubt, many women) have watched the famed black porn queen--she of the blond wig and blue contact lenses--'do it' on television and computer screens every which way and with every combination of partners the mind can imagine. But one day an unexpected and thunderous on-set orgasm catches Debbie unawares, and when she returns to the mansion she shares with her husband, insatiable former porn star and "film producer" Theon Pinkney, she discovers that he's died in a case of hot tub electrocution, "auditioning" an aspiring "starlet." Burdened with massive debts that her husband incurred, and which various L.A. heavies want to collect on, Debbie must reconcile a life spent in the peculiar subculture of the pornography industry and her estrangement from her family and the child she had to give up. Debbie decides she's done with porn and just "isn't going to do it anymore." But executing her exit strategy from the porn world is a wrenching and far-from-simple process.
