LOVE Merritt Patterson. She is great in these Hallmark movies and I watch every one she is in because he smile is infectious and her characters are always clearly just happy people, which is why you wanna watch movies like this. That said, the casting of the male lead opposite her was a bit awkward as they didn't seem to have any actual chemistry and he came across as too old for her. But the story is super cute and extremely believable that she has the integrity she shows in this movie. It made the scenario a lot more realistic.
