Konterr Brilliant and touching

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

slentner Lacey first addresses her boss/boyfriend as "Walter" in an early scene, but refers to him as "Roger" later. I thought Roger must be someone we had not seen before, but--when the man appeared in Oregon--he was clearly "Roger". Somebody let that slip!

tiggerjedi This is based on a book written by Samantha Chase. The only things that are similar are character names. The rest of the story in the movie is so different from the book. The book was amazing which is why I watched th movie. Bad move Hallmark.

Christmas-Reviewer I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 ( C H R I S T M A S ) MOVIES AND SPECIALS.PLEASE BEWARE OF SOME REVIEWERS THAT ONLY HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN! I HAVE DISCOVERED MANY GEMS IN MY QUEST TO SEE AS MANY " C H R I S T M A S " MOVIES AS I CAN.I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 ( C H R I S T M A S ) MOVIES AND SPECIALS.Lacey has already given up on love. Her heart's been broken too many times, and now she concentrates on her career as an interior designer in Raleigh, North Carolina. When BFF Ava Callahan asks Lacey to be her maid of honor, she must take on a few responsibilities, including making sure the Callahan family cottage is perfect for the honeymoon. Legend has it that if newlyweds spend their first night there, everlasting love and happiness follow. Lacey isn't sure she buys into that notion. Still, when she finds herself snowed in there with Charlie, Ava's brother, Lacey has to reconsider if the little house may hold some romantic magic after all. The film would not be bad had it cast someone else as the male lead. Steve Lund can not make his part come to life. Merritt Patterson however makes the most of what is given to her. The hidden message however in this film is "Women who are never married will never be happy".The film does nothing original. The fun thing to with this movie is to see if you can figure what other Hallmark Movies were filmed at the same locations that were used here.

charlesvine-75968 Yes, it was Hallmark's same tried and true formula, but you know that before watching in most cases. In this instance, Merritt Patterson is the hotshot designer who left her small home town for a designing job in the big city. Upon returning home, she almost immediately runs into her old boyfriend. Her past feelings soon return as does her yearning for the small town life she had in the past but she is tied to her big city boyfriend. After spending a snowbound night in a "magical" cottage, the two old flames reunite for another happy Hallmark ending.Some actors/actresses just seem to be cut out for casting in these Hallmark feel good movies and this time it's Merritt Patterson. At least in my opinion, Merritt and Jen Lilley are perfectly cast in these roles and are extremely likable, resulting in an enjoyable movie, albeit with the same old premise.
