Although he was born gay, Curtis Jenkins has trouble picking fruit. Now a successful middle-aged New York City writer, he is still searching for that elusive man of his dreams. Unfortunately, Curtis has already formed a self-destructive pattern of choosing all the wrong men in all the wrong places.
After a bizarre yet comical attempt at suicide, Curtis becomes a reluctant patient of the aging and eccentric psychiatrist Dr. Magda Tunick. Her gruff and unethical approach to therapy relentlessly pushes him to explore the real reasons why he hasn't found love and helps him to discover the important qualities he desires in a man.
Eager to help Curtis on his quest to find his true soul mate is his irreverent and unpredictable mother, Mrs. J., and his incorrigible best friend and soap opera writer, Quinn.
Will Curtis discover who and what he truly wants in his life? While he barely survives dates that are funny, frightening, sexy and even shocking, Curtis may just uncover the fortitude to fine Mr. Right (or even Mr. Pretty Close).
