by Michael Baisden... Stars Richard Roundtree (Shaft), Allen Payne (Jason's Lyric, New Jack City), Christopher Williams (R&B singer), Rhona Bennett (R&B singer, Jamie Foxx Show), Lavell Crawford (Comedian), and Monifah (R&B singer). The future has never looked better for Derrick Reed. Bachelorhood is great, he has a group of guys he can really call friends, and he's the publisher of a magazine that he named after his philosophy of life, Happily Single. Little does Derrick know, appearing on Atlanta's hottest radio station morning talk show to promote his new magazine, he is about to go on a whirl-wind ride, which will eventually take him to the heart of a woman who will change his life forever. He finds the perfect woman and the perfect reason to stop womanizing and make a commitment. This mystery woman is about to have a lasting impact on Derrick's life by changing the way he thinks and feels about women and relationships.
