senior Sam Montgomery (Hilary Duff) lives at the beck and call of her self-
obsessed step-mother Fiona (Jennifer Coolidge) and her sinfully wicked step-
sisters. Sam finds her less-than-sparkling social life wonderfully complicated when she
meets her prince charming online. But when her anonymous cyber soul mate turns
out to be her high school�s uber-popular quaterback Austin Ames (Chad Michael
Murray), Sam makes a mad dash back to reality, leaving her cell phone behind
just before the clock strikes midnight. Fearing rejection if her secret is
revealed, Sam dodges Austin�s efforts to discover the identity of his princess.
Will Sam let fear hold her back or will she find the courage to be herself and
claim the life she�s always wanted? Her chance at happily ever after depends on it.
