SYNOPSIS

Teenager Holly Hamilton (Duff) is tired of moving every time her single mom Jean (Locklear) has another personal meltdown involving yet another second-rate guy.

To distract her mother from her latest bad choice, Holly conceives the perfect plan for the perfect man … an imaginary secret admirer who will romance Jean and boost her shaky self-esteem. When the virtual relationship takes off, Holly finds herself having to produce the suitor, borrowing her friend’s charming and handsome Uncle Ben (Chris Noth) as the face behind the e-mails, notes and gifts.

Holly must resort to increasingly desperate measures to keep the ruse alive and protect her mom’s newfound happiness … almost missing the real perfect man when he does come along.
