In this delightful romantic comedy, Reese Witherspoon stars as sophisticated Melanie Carmichael, a rising New York designer who suddenly finds herself engaged to the city's most eligible bachelor. But this is no fairy tale romance for Melanie. She has a secret past that includes Jake (Josh Lucas), the backwoods husband she married in highschool, who refuses to divorce her. Determined to end their marriage and sever all ties with her past once and for all, Melanie returns to Alabama. But home starts to tug at her heartstrings, and what she thought she wanted may not be what she wants after all.
