Lauren Hennesey (Danielle Panabaker) has been critiquing food since she was a girl writing about her school cafeteria. She takes a job ghost writing for demanding San Francisco TV chef Dexter Durant (Shawn Roberts) to pay for her French cooking school. He refuses to put his recipes in a cookbook and initially, the two of them clash.
This is a functional Hallmark romance. They even have the Ghost scene. The two leads are photogenic. It has nothing special. It's not bigger than one expects and it follows the standard formula. The movie does need a bigger love competitor. That is the one failure in following the formula. Mostly, it won't excel beyond the countless other TV romances.
