Nikki isn't a gigolo. He's a sexual grifter, a fun-loving, freeloading hipster who understands 
his greatest assets are his looks and sexual prowess, which he uses to charm his way into the hearts 
of the city's richest women and enjoy their lifestyle. Nikki gets a free place to live, fantastic 
gifts, A-list access, and plenty of sex. The women get to feel young, beautiful... and utterly 
fulfilled in the bedroom. It's a mutually beneficial set-up. Nikki's latest conquest is Samantha, 
a stunning middle-aged lawyer who gives him more than he's ever had before. But then he meets a 
gorgeous waitress his own age named Heather. She comes to visit Nikki at Samantha's house while 
Samantha is out of town, sees what an incredible place it is... and comes to the mistaken conclusion 
it's his. Unbeknownst to Nikki, Heather lives by playing the same game. When Samantha comes home, 
she discovers Nikki's infidelity and he's put out on the street. With nowhere else to turn, Nikki 
pulls out all the stops to win Heather over and they begin to form their own kind of bond. Sexually 
charged by a game of one-upsmanship, each shows the other their best grifts, and they unexpectedly 
begin falling in love - the one thing they can't do in the life they lead. Soon, the truth of their 
unfolding relationship forces a choice between love and money, and Nikki has to decide whether he 
can live on his own once and for all in the hopes of finding something real.

==========

In Los Angeles, Nikki is homeless, car-less and closing in on 30, but he's amoral, good-looking, and 
adept in the sack, moving from one wealthy woman of 35 or 40 to another, a kept boy-toy. His newest 
gig, with Samantha, an attorney whose house overlooks L.A., is sweet, although it's unclear how long 
she'll put up with him. Then Nikki meets Heather, a waitress. Is the player being played, or might 
this be love? What will Nikki discover?
