Quarterback Danny Diamond loves to score. Touchdowns. Get those dirty thoughts out of your minds, ladies. Just because he has two Championship rings, model good looks, and a well-defined athletic body doesn't mean he's a player off the field. Sure, he has women swooning over his messy blond hair, brilliant blue eyes, and cocky smirk, but he's been married to his college sweetheart since he was drafted, and they have two beautiful children.Just when he's gearing up for what he hopes is the best season of his career, his picture-perfect wife of fifteen years completely blindsides him when she asks for a divorce. Award-winning actress Jennifer Edwards also lives a seemingly fairy-tale celebrity life with rock star and international DJ, Troy Malone. That is, until he's caught on video in an Amsterdam brothel, and their love becomes tabloid fodder. Years ago, Danny and Jennifer met at a party, and their chemistry was off the charts.
