Kat (Debra Messing), a never-married New Yorker, is invited to her
parents' London home for her younger sister's wedding. What should be a
joyous occasion bodes disaster for Kat, however, when she discovers that
the best man will be none other than her ex-fiancé, who, two years before,
inexplicably dumped her. In a desperate attempt to face the ordeal with
dignity, Kat hires Nick (Dermot Mulroney), a charming and handsome
professional male escort, to pose as her new boyfriend and escort her to
the wedding.
Even more valuable to Kat than Nick's good looks and charisma is his keen
insight into human behaviour--a well-learned trick of his trade. Over the
course of the weekend, Nick takes on the role of the bride's therapist,
the father's ideal son-in-law, the groom's new best friend and the object
of every woman's affection. For Kat, what starts out as a pretend
relationship with Nick begins to turn into something entirely unexpected:
a second chance at love.
