I'm Leo Landry, one of the best shutdown cornerbacks in the nation, and the New York Mavericks' first round draft pick. If James Bond spent his days running drills and his nights shutting out quarterbacks, he'd dream about being me.

We can’t both have that same thought if we want to stay together when our contract ends. But the more I see him struggle against the things his mother does to him, the harder I fall. The more his ex tries to get in his way, the more I want to stand up for him. And the more adventures he takes me on through the peaceful dream of his estate in the wilderness, the more I can see myself staying by his side.

What happens when you fall in love with your best friend? I have the best job in the world. Date beautiful women and write about it. But I want to take it to the next level: instead of writing about my experiences, make it into an online reality show. But here is the catch. My boss wants me to share the show with a woman cohost. And he wants that woman to be my best friend and coworker, Margo. I used to love going home with a different woman every night, but suddenly this isn't as fun. Seeing Margo with anyone else is driving me crazy.

And he's optimal baby daddy material. For me - not Amanda one, two, or three.

Again and again. When I find out she’s pregnant with my baby, I realize the club might not be the only thing in life. Can I have everything? When they are threatened, I have to decide.
