The story line was ok but was boring for the most part. The acting was terrible and Jodi Sweetin should stick to full house. GAC paid to much money to show this. It was more like a .99 movie dvd you find at the goodwill. Jodi needs to stick to tv because her acting skills are F-. After I watched this I googled the title to read reviews from other people. I noticed that Jodi Sweetin was angry this movie was sold to GAC. She should be grateful that it was sold. I hope GAC doesn't buy anymore of her movies because this movie was a waste of my time watching it. I know now I will not watch anymore of her movies they are like watching glue dry.

SWEET!

This movie was a little different than the usual romance movie. It did not follow the usual pattern of a lot of cooking meals and baking cookies and a plot with too many characters from the town to fill in time and space. I usually enjoy Jodie Sweetin in roles with her beautiful smile and upbeat personality. Brent Bailey was a very pleasant surprise in this movie. I loved his role as Mathew. His shy smile, sweet and calm demeanor made his role beautiful. When he finally challenged his father about being more concerned about money and declared his love for Nicole was very touching. The movie could have ended there for me. I liked the flash back scenes. The second love interest plot between Nicole's brother and employee/friend was an added bonus.
Acting is subpar.

The acting and the story line is pretty cheesy, even for this genre of movie. I have watched almost all hallmark movies and when this channel split off some of the actors and actresses I was excited for new opportunities, but this movie - didn't do it. It almost seems like they are trying to pack too much into the movie. Sometimes it's okay to leave out information or lines and the story can still come across. It almost feels like they don't believe their story line can survive without spelling it out for us the viewers. If you want some background noise it's okay, but if you are wanting to watch it for the acting and story - I would skip it.
Bad acting ruined it....

I will find it difficult to fulfill the character requirement on this one. From the very start the phone conversation between Father and son was so cliched and the lead actress' acting was dreadful. She was just reading her lines with no commitment or true expression. The customers entering her store were even worse and within 5 minutes it felt like I was watching a high school play. I rarely review a film or series without seeing it through to the end but this one was impossible to watch and I generally love Hallmark movies.
It was the typical opening set-up with the son of a huge conglomerate being sent to a small town to promote their new store and tear down the competition. Won't be hard to guess what happens but with dialogue, direction and acting as bad as this, I won't be watching to find out.
