The series is about Billie Connelly (played by Sara Shahi), a wife and mum who questions her life when she meets up with her ex-boyfriend Brad (Adam Demos). WARNING: This article contains spoilers from Sex/Life. Sex/Life is based on the book 44 Chapters About 4 Men written by BB Easton. The 2016 book was a self-published memoir that was turned into a Netflix series by UnReal's writer and producer Stacy Rukeyser. So Sex/Life is actually based on a true story, the life of its author BB Easton. She has described what it has been like for her, seeing that part of her life play out on screen. Sex/Life: Billie Connelly is played by actress Sara Shahi.

She explained: "Seeing these gorgeous supermodel humans on a screen portraying characters based on my husband and myself while we're sitting on our busted, 12-year-old couch in our sweatpants, quarantine day 587...we're just so tickled. "It's been an absolute dream come true that I didn't even know I had." The book's focus is on the loves of her life, including real-life husband Ken who is portrayed by actor Vogel in Sex/Life. Sex/Life: The series is based on the memoir 44 Chapters about 4 Men. Her other three loves are described as "a tattoo artist turned U.S. Marine turned motorcycle club outlaw, a baby-faced punk rocker out on parole, and a heavy-metal bass player." Like Billie, Easton started writing a journal as she was feeling torn in her life as a married mum-of-two. The novel's first diary instalment reads: "The man is at least ninety percent perfect for me, but lately, all I can think about is the less-than-or-equal-to ten-person that's missing: passion and body art. "Two things I need to mourn and move on from in order to protect my lovely, monotonous marriage. But I can't." [SCENE]  So far, there has been no news in regards to season two of Sex/Life. However, the series only came out over a week ago so it's still really early days. In this relatively short space of time, Sex/Life has become one of the most-watched shows on Netflix. Therefore, it does seem the romantic drama could be in with a chance of another season.
