The Parkers' best friends, James and Serena, are in the final stages of a bitter divorce. Just when James thinks his nightmare is over, he learns his daughter has a different daddy. For the love of money, single mom Lachez Baker is a ghetto-fabulous mother of three who seems to have it all, thanks to money from her children's fathers. But soon, her life of designer clothes, endless parties, and steady cash collides with the man who's been the target of her carefully crafted paternity fraud. From author Pat Tucker comes a drama-filled tale of lies, schemes and consequences as these men discover the importance of knowing the paternity laws in your state.
