Newspaper advice columnist Dan Burns could use some good advice about his own relationships. A widowed parent of three daughters who are growing up in a hurry, Dan has little time to pursue his own happiness. After bringing the girls to his parents’ (Dianne Wiest and John Mahoney) Rhode Island beach house for their semiannual family gathering, Dan decides he needs a break from all the togetherness. Wandering into a used bookstore, he is mistaken for an employee by a charming customer named Marie (Juliette Binoche). Despite their shyness, an instant and undeniable attraction hints at future possibilities. But awkwardness turns to full-fledged discomfort when Dan returns to the house and is reintroduced to Marie as the new girlfriend of his fitness-instructor brother Mitch (Dane Cook). As Dan and Marie pretend they’re strangers while simultaneously falling in love, Dan’s despair at his predicament creates even more embarrassing misunderstandings—with sidesplitting results. Torn between romance and family, Dan finds his real life hinges on a very difficult decision.
