Hilary Duff stars in this comedy as Holly a teenager whose lovelorn single mum (Heather Locklear) moves the family including her youngest daughter (Aria Wallace) to a new state every time she gets dumped which is often Their latest residence turns out to be Brooklyn where the now thoroughly destabilised Holly decides that enough is enough and works to prevent mum from dating yet another local loser She uses a friend&39;s handsome uncle (Chris Noth) as the unwitting basis for a fictional secret admirer to keep mum occupied but the deception quickly spins out of control resulting in some madcap hijinx Meanwhile a classmate who is a comic book artist (Ben Feldman) falls for Holly but she&39;s way too edgy to notice that love has found her instead of her mum This whimsical plotline may sound familiar to any non-tweener in the audience but it works due to the relaxed natural rapport between Duff and Locklear who share some heartfelt moments of mother-daughter bonding Plus no one can squirm in tortured embarrassment quite as effectively as Duff can and she gets plenty of opportunities The soundtrack is peppered with Styx songs (singer Dennis DeYoung plays an impersonator of himself) and Vanessa Lengies quietly stands out with plenty of natural grace as Holly&39;s hipster high school buddy

Comedy starring Hilary Duff and Heather Locklear. Holly Hamilton (Duff) is sick of moving house every time her single mother Jean (Locklear) breaks up with another worthless boyfriend, so she comes up with a plan to create an imaginary secret admirer who will boost Jean's self-esteem and hopefully keep her in one place. But when the romance takes off, Holly has to produce the goods, and so she borrows her best friend's handsome uncle Ben (Chris Noth) to pose as the secret admirer. But will Holly be able to keep the pretence up for long?
