Don't pick on the actors. They did what they were told to do. They made Olivia look shallow and selfish just to show how much she had grown by the end. Plus, her being good at a few things even though she wasn't a country girl doesn't mean it's bad writing. Some people can just do things. She probably didn't even know she could until she did because she got all excited when she actually did. She sure didn't throw axes in New York or drive cattle in New York. She was just putting up a brave face and seemed quite surprised that she actually did it. We're not talking about the Oscars. You knew going in that it was a Hallmark chick flick / romcom. Didn't like Christopher Russell the first time I saw him in something but I've seen him in a number of things and he's really growing on me. I'm liking him very much. Yes, some things are stereo-typical like what New Yorkers think of people who live in the boonies and vice versa. Olivia was a bit too perky for my liking but that's what the writers wanted. Overall, the two main stars brought out the best in each other's characters and found what they were good at doing. Predictable, yes but again you should have known that going in. The writers weren't the best and the actors had to do the best with what they were given. I say thumbs-up to the actors.
