100 First Dates

With a successful career in New York advertising, a surplus of dates and a couple of New York City marathons under her stylish Fendi belt, 29 year-old Laura Esteves is no stranger to the finish line. But when her off-and-on boyfriend suggests she move in Laura is paralyzed by the thought of this next step. In Manhattan, the possibility of something better just around the corner is very real. When Laura’s boyfriend tells her he is going on a month-long vacation without her, she sees an opportunity to ease her anxiety. Laura vows to make the most of this newfound freedom: She will date every single single guy in New York City —or at least a good sampling.

100 First Dates: 1 Month to Date Every Single Single Guy in NYC, is a hilarious, true-life story of one woman’s attempt to qualify the one egg in her basket with a vast quantity of shiny (and sometimes cracked) eggs from the chicken-coop that is New York City. After a month of brunching, lunching, dining and clubbing, countless walks in Central Park and strolls down Hampton’s beaches, will Laura take the next step in her relationship, or will she decide this one man is not worth the freedom of her single life.
