The Dirty Girls are back, saucier and sexier than ever....but would it be wrong 
to ask them to be a little smarter, too?? Especially when it comes to men. And 
sex. Lauren Fernandez is at the top of her game as the cleverest columnist the 
Boston Gazette has on board--but she can't quite figure out how to pick a guy 
or how to eat (and not drink) like a healthy person.nbsp; Usnavys is still 
sashaying all over town, 260 pounds of her dolled up in designer duds and ready 
for action--from anyone except her husband Juan, that is.nbsp; He's become just 
a bit boring staying home scrubbing the tub and cooking up chicken fingers for 
pre-schooler Carolina while somebody else brings home the bacon. Maybe the 
other Dirty Girls could help Lauren and 'navy out, but they've got their own 
messes to deal with: Rebecca Baca hasn't gained a pound since college (well, 
who would, if they had an ounce of self-control?) but suspects her 
picture-perfect marriage may not yield the baby she longs for; Sara may be the 
star of her own decorating show on cable television, but her dangerous pull 
toward her ex-husband Roberto isn't so pretty;nbsp; Amber keeps renaming 
herself and doesn't want to hear that her soulfulness and reinvention aren't 
enough to make fans actually buy her music; and Elizabeth is discovering that a 
relationship with another woman takes more than bravery and a nesting instinct. 
Dirty Girls on Top is about trying to figure it all out without quite as much 
time left as there was five years ago.nbsp; And it's about sex and 
love--getting it, not getting it, yearning for it, having it with the wrong 
person, fighting it from the right person, trying it a new way, giving up on 
it. And, in the end, if your fingers are crossed and the planets are in 
alignment, having it come out just the way it should.
