Hallmark Movies and Mysteries productions often go a lot deeper than the other Hallmark channel's fluffy rom/coms. This movie is does just that.

I am getting the feeling that writing a review after one viewing is going to miss a lot because I'm sure there's a lot more to absorb than you can one time through.

The easy things to comment about are the poetry and scenery. I'm deaf to poetry unless it's a song. But I actually found myself appreciating some of the things quoted in this movie. The scenery is real, not just the best spots or shots. As a result, it has a special kind of beauty.

Eloise Mumford is well cast in this role. She has a special way about her, and it fits perfectly here. She and Julian Morris have a chemistry that is far more than witty dialogue. Amy Sharp, as the young Tegan, adds another level of special.

The movie explores special situations and emotions. I can't even imagine how much anxiety Joss lives with as the result of her traumatic back story. But each of the four main characters carries some emotional baggage. The movie does a good job with it.
