    From 2013 back when Hallmark still made good movies
    Don't get me wrong I watch the silly Hallmark romance movies everyday. But I really miss the heartfelt quality movies they used to make. This could be one of the last one of those. Great cast, well acted, likeable characters and developed many of the characters. It's worth seeing for sure.
