Not identical twins Aisha and Felicia Goodman have always done everything together as they have always been best friends. They live together in Atlanta and run an accounting business together. However, recently Felecia has had second thoughts although she loves her sibling. She detests Aisha's promiscuous lifestyle. Aisha has also had second thoughts; she hates her sister's prudish lifestyle. However, both fears stepping out by themselves.

A close friend of the twins Tarik offers them a solution to their dilemma with the apartment building he owns on Peachtree. He rents one apartment each on the same floor to the girls. Meanwhile his childhood friend attorney Derrick has relocated from Chicago for two reasons: first he has a great career opportunity and second he was fleeing his former drama queen girlfriend Darla. Meanwhile, Felicia realizes she loves Tarik and Aisha is falling in love with Derrick, but both have other females in their lives; Tarik considers marrying his current girlfriend Tara and Darla arrives claiming she is carrying Derrick's child.

The title is apropos as this is a zany look at the swinging singles. Each of the prime six characters is fully developed especially the twins so that the turmoil of the convoluted relationships make for a zany time on Peachtree.
