About this title

Synopsis

There were many women in his past.
Will one of them become his future?
Rodney Hampton, a thirty-three-year-old L.A. native, is a pro at juggling women. He and his best friend, Timothy Waters Jr., spent many years recklessly scoping out honeys at ski summits, getting acquainted with MBAs at Martha's Vineyard beach parties, and macking coeds at the Howard homecoming. Yet when Tim gets married, Rodney begins to wonder whether what his ailing mother tells him is true -- is he really "one woman short"?
After compiling a list of all his previous lovers, he goes knocking on the doors of three ex-girlfriends to see if he may have let true love (and matrimony) slip away: Belinda Myles, a club promoter; Sabena, a Cedars-Sinai nurse/dancer; and Amy Davis, a born-again bus dispatcher. The question is: Will anyone in this trio let the man who loved and then left come back into her life?
