Synopsis

Nick Johnson has always been an underachieving, borderline alcoholic … but
he soon finds himself in over his head.
When his affair with Vickie, an unhappily married homemaker, results in an
accidental pregnancy. Vickie abandons Nick, leaving him to raise their biracial
daughter, Lynn, alone. Overwhelmed by the difficulties of single fatherhood and
seeking comfort and help for himself in that stressful journey, Nick dates
numerous women who will change his life forever.
Will raising Lynn force him to mature? Can a single father with a challenging
past teach his daughter to become a strong, successful woman? Will a daddy's
girl, raised primarily by her father, leave Lynn destined to fail from a lack of female
guidance?
