Ben makes a wager with his boss that if he can get a woman to fall in love with him in 10 days he gets the account. The twist, the female co-workers get to choose the woman Ben has to make fall in love. Sneakily they choose Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson), a writer for Composure magazine whom they had met earlier and learned she is doing an article called “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days”.
