Three men discover that meddling in their sister-in-law's love life only makes their own lives more complicated in this
romantic comedy.
Eva Dandridge (
Gabrielle Union) developed a sense of responsibility early on in life, when after the death of her parents she was left to care for her three younger sisters,
Kareenah (
Essence Atkins),
Bethany (
Robinne Lee), and
Jacqui (
Meagan Good). All four of the Dandridge sisters have grown up to be attractive, intelligent, and successful;
Kareenah is happily married to
Tim (
Mel Jackson), while
Bethany is engaged to
Michael (
Duane Martin), and
Jacqui is going steady with
Darrell (
Dartanyan Edmonds). However,
Eva still watches over her siblings like a hawk, and while her sisters love
Eva dearly,
Tim,
Michael, and
Darrell wish their sister-in-law would stay out of their business. The guys decide that if
Eva had a boyfriend, she might be less interested in running other people's lives, and they turn to
Ray (
LL Cool J), a notorious ladies' man, for help.
Ray is short on cash, so the guys make him a deal -- they'll give him 5,000 dollars to romance
Eva, sweep her off her feet, and then dump her a few weeks later.
Ray agrees, and while getting past her no-nonsense demeanor takes some doing, before long she's head over heels for him. However,
Ray unexpectedly finds himself falling in love with
Eva, and
Eva, when offered a job in another town, decides to stay on to be with
Ray. Even worse, the other Dandridge sisters are so impressed with the romantic
Ray that they start demanding a bit more TLC from their own men.
