Storyline
A beautiful but equally dangerous widow won't take "no" for an answer as she draws a dedicated family man into a world of passion, deceit and betrayal, threatening to destroy him in the process. When a scheming widow hires a young contractor to renovate her home, she quickly turns the arrangement into much more than just a construction job. As she manipulates her young employee into a torrid affair, her target finally gives in for one night of passion. Realizing what he has done, the younger man insists that he cannot continue the relationship, but he soon finds that much more than his reputation is at stake. Written by

Add Synopsis
For surely this movie was out of her league. It's one thing to have a long long running part in a soap like ALL MY CHILDREN, but another to try to make it on the big screen. Susan Lucci is not an actress. She's more of a soap fixture. Her character name of Erika proceeds her acting abilities. In this film for TV, she still gives that large toothy smile she's known for and disrobes a lot showing a small and bony figure. Not that enticing in my book. The guy, David Charvet, was so much younger than her, that at times it was hard to believe he looked at the seductress at all. Most unbelievable. A somewhat attractive man, who could have any one, goes around saying he did it for the job and the money. Bah, humbug! His lovely wife, Gabrielle Carteris, did not even think he was betraying her. In another world. Although I felt she played the most honest performance in the movie. She and the little boy who played the son. All other actors seemed incidental. so, I give this movie 2 stars for both Carteris and the little boy.
Title should be YOUNG MAN, WITH LITTLE SMARTS, MEETS OLDER LADY WITH OBVIOUS DESIGNS.
