Kathleen's a hard-working single mother, who's saving to buy a house for herself and her daughter, Zoe. Sam's a businessman who has to pretend he has a family in order to close a deal with the mysterious Javier Del Campo. Sam owns the company that Kathleen works for, and as her boss, manages to convince her to help him out. But Del Campo is more than he seems, and it just might be Zoe who's making the real deal to get a new home for herself, her mother, and Sam. Written by

Borrowed Hearts is a moderately charming romantic comedy that almost succeeds in creating a believable story. Although heartfelt performances by principals Eric McCormack (Will & Grace), Roma Downey (Touched by an Angel), and Sarah Rosen Fruitman (The Sweet Hereafter) captivate your attention, the story overall is weakened by distracting cameo performances by marginal characters, including the mansion's serving staff and Zoey's birth father. Still, the premise is well-crafted and the chemistry between Eric McCormack and Roma Downey sparkles on screen. Often broadcast on the Fox Family channel, Borrowed Hearts is perfect viewing for a cold winter night.
