A girl plays Cupid for her mom, but has to invent the right man to woo her in this
romantic comedy.
Jean Hamilton (
Heather Locklear) is a single mother with two daughters, teenaged
Holly (
Hilary Duff) and grade-school-aged
Zoe (
Aria Wallace). Fortysomething
Jean has stumbled in and out of a number of bad relationships in her lifetime, and is desperate to find a good man; however,
Holly has grown a bit tired of
Jean's favored means of therapy after a bad breakup -- packing up the family and moving to a new city. Once
Jean and her girls settle in Brooklyn,
Holly thinks they should stay for a while, and when
Jean's romantic prospects begin to look less than rosy,
Holly and her new friend
Amy (
Vanessa Lengies) decide to invent a secret admirer for her. Needing advice on what the "perfect man" would say and do,
Holly and
Amy turn to
Ben (
Chris Noth),
Amy's uncle who talks a very good game when it comes to romance. But convincing
Jean that there's a real man behind the steady stream of letters and e-mails from her new admirer isn't as easy as
Holly imagines, and it looks as if her imaginary suitor might get in the way of a flesh-and-blood Mr. Right.
