Storyline

Leah Townsend has always been a people pleaser. From her childhood as a senator's daughter to her career as a successful author, Leah goes out of her way to avoid conflict. So strong is her desire to keep the people around her happy that Leah is also too afraid to let her longtime boyfriend Edward Crouse know that their relationship is in a rut-the same date night, at the same restaurant, with the same food, week in and week out. And to top it all off, her second novel is proving much more difficult to write than the first. When Leah and Edward have a minor disagreement at Edward's faculty party (it barely qualifies as a spat) Edward enrolls her in a group conflict resolution class. There, she meets Cinco Dublin, a shock-jock radio host attending the class by court order. His family has a prickly past with the Townsends: Cinco Sr., a renowned journalist, went toe-to-toe with Senator Townsend when he was in office and the bad blood still remains.

Loves Complicated

Hallmark has done it again!! This is such a delightful movie Ben Bass is perfect for the role and brings a laugh or smile to your face more than once when things get complicated. It is a change of pace and does become complicated in a funny serious kind of way. What really is nice is the man gets who the woman is and what her problem is and to boot he helps her become the person she is meant to be. This is a must watch!! You will love it!! It does have many complications that I personally found funny! It is so delightfully funny when you feel you have no problems and find you are loaded with problems. Taking care of the problems in a group proved awkward and funny! You will enjoy it!!
