His acerbic English butler Juliet Lavish has decided to retire. The humanitarian church founded by his late parents has suddenly gone broke. In Honduras. In the middle of the jungle. Lastly, NYPD detective Brian Schrade wants to use Chase's palatial mansion to hide Walter Godfrey, a newspaper reporter who might know something about a recent rash of mob-related business deals. Part of the deal is the conniving, misanthropic Alec Pratt, son of a local newspaper mogul and unapologetic police informant who just might have a teensy-weensy crush on Brian Schrade. But Walter isn't safe, not at Chase's residence or anywhere else. His too-frequent forays into the city--against Brian Schrade's advice--make him a target, and his strong attraction to Chase Gordon is setting him up for some serious heartbreak. When Chase goes to Honduras to investigate the state of his family's failing fortunes, there's more trouble: Chase has been set up for kidnapping.

Shirley can't understand why her son gave the high-maintenance Zacariah a second chance after her first affair. Derrick finally sees his mother's point of view when he catches Zacariah cheating once again. When Derrick breaks up with Zacariah, he rushes to Jaquon's house for support from his best friend. Kea is there alone, and before they know it, their mutual pity party turns into some intense passion. Knowing their first time should have been the last, the two of them can't help but start a smoking hot affair. Zacariah's not having it, though. When she discovers the two of them in bed together, she's determined to get revenge against the woman she believes stole Derrick from her. Zacariah plans to crash a party at Derrick's house, but she's armed with more than just the news of the affair.

But as fate would have it, he has just found out the love of his life is also his sister. Derrick is devastated by the news, but the beautiful and alluring Trinity is more than eager to help him forget about the turmoil he's going through. Little does Derrick know that Trinity has her own secrets, and she's willing to do whatever it takes to keep them buried. Kea understands the emotional rollercoaster Derrick is on, because she's on her own downward spiral. Kicking her boyfriend Jaquon out of her life is a start, but it won't solve everything, because in spite of it all, she's still in love with him. Jaquon knows Kea means it this time, and he's determined to change for the better to get his baby back. He's slowly working his way back into Kea's good graces, but he's not alone in his quest for her heart. Derrick, who believes the DNA test is not true, convinces Kea to have another test done to prove they are not related. Trinity, Jaquon, and even Zacariah are against this test happening, afraid it will change the dynamics of their relationships. Not every story has a happy ending. Will anyone succeed in getting the love they are so eagerly seeking? And who will be left mourning the loss of a loved one? Tresser Henderson continues to deliver the drama in My Man's Best Friend II.
