As a man of a certain age, I have come to appreciate anything that celebrates kindness, decency, virtue and honor. Most guys complain about watching Hallmark with their wives. Not me. Hallmark has been a breath of fresh air from long ago. With that said, my thoughts are this; with one exception, the cast was awesome. As mentioned before me, the new spin of having the leads instantly being attracted to each other, yet taking a circuitous route to connecting, is a nice touch. My lone quibble is Eion Bailey. The persona he presents seems sullen and disconnected, with an underlying sense of anger, to everyone around him. He musters up kindness only when confronted. Usually, when the leads finally unite, there's a sense of joy. Not in this case. Alvina August radiates a glow through the whole movie. You can't help but root for her, but Mr. Bailey never, in my opinion, generated any chemistry with her. So when the movie ended, it was like.......meh, what other Hallmark movie have we got recorded. Even so, the movie was quite good. I just don't believe I'll watch it when it hits the rerun cycle later
