Terrible Ending--SPOILER ALERT
30 August 2020
Warning: Spoilers
When Brad is finally found, his former girlfriend, who is supposedly the hero, gives him a completely impossible choice. He must immediately leave his dying biological mother, risking her death while he is gone, or she will just break up with him forever, although "forgiving him." At least she gave the ring back.

Instead of a true reunion between his two families, perfectly plausible under the circumstances, it apparently never occurs to either of them that a compromise could be reached in any case. His bio mom was clean now, and needed him. His adopted family clearly would have understood, and might have even been willing to help the biological mother in her last days. .

She also completely forgives his brother for totally deceiving her repeatedly, but not Brad, who she said she would have loved forever if he had only been honest. Yet both had good intentions in their lies. Do I detect a bit of hypocrisy here?

I can only hope the book was better. But the movie was a hideous example of Christianity. Oh, and I forgot her best friend since childhood abandoned her totally for awhile because she was in such grief that she could not function for awhile. She was to either get it together or forget the friendship. Great friend.

Worst movie ever on UPTV, which usually has better religiously themed movies than Hallmark. This one was more like something on "Frightful family and friends" night on Lifetime.
