As the ‘How to…’ columnist for trendy Composure Magazine, Andie Anderson agrees to write a first-hand account about what it takes to drive a man out of your life…in exactly 10 days. At the same time, eligible ad agency bachelor Benjamin Barry accepts a high-stakes bet that he can lure any woman into falling head-over-heels in love with him…also in 10 days. The resulting romantic head-on collision ignites a series of deliriously comic deceptions that prove when it comes to true love…your heart cannot tell a lie.

Did you know?
- Much of the scene where Andie crashes Ben’s “boys night” was improvised. Kate Hudson had the idea to toss the platter of veggies at the guys seated at the poker table. Donald Petrie, the director, knew she was going to do this but the actors in the scene were truly surprised.
- There were an estimated $14,200,000 worth of jewels lent to the film.
- The name, style, and content of Composure Magazine all make it a dead ringer for Cosmopolitan Magazine.
