Premise

Liza Miller is 40 years old and a recently divorced mother. As her daughter begins college, her husband David leaves her for a younger woman. Subsequently struggling without David's financial support, she attempts to get a job in publishing, which proves difficult for a woman of her age. During her hunt, she meets Josh, a 26-year-old man who guesses he and Liza are about the same age. His compliment sparks an idea in Liza: she decides to get a makeover, courtesy of her best friend Maggie, in order to pass herself off as 26 years old. Ultimately, she becomes an assistant to Diana Trout at the publishing firm Empirical Press, where she befriends Kelsey Peters, her 20-something co-worker.
