Wait with Me

Wait with Me was such a cute romantic comedy! If you've read Amy Daws' book, you'll love seeing the characters come to life on screen. And let me tell you, Andrew Biernat totally nailed it as Miles Hudson, the sexy "book boyfriend", while Madison Lawlor resembled, in an extraordinary manner, the humor and characteristics of Kate Smith.

The rest of the cast was fantastic, with Jordan Blair Brown, Caleb Slovak, and Laith Chaz Wallschleger delivering solid performances as Miles and Kate's friends, and James Knight acting as a real jerk was the cherry on top. And the comedic moments were hilarious, like that secret pizza delivery scene. I couldn't stop laughing, as I remember well when that actually happened to Amy in real life! Because part of this story is based on the author's real-life experience while writing her books.

The screenplay stayed true to the original story, the cinematography was remarkable, the editing was good, and the music matched the different scenes, enhancing the experience for the audience. It captured the book's humor, tenderness, and steamy romance. But the real standout was the chemistry between Biernat and Lawlor; it was so on point and made their on-screen relationship super captivating.

Overall, this movie is a well-done adaptation that showcases Biernat's impressive acting skills and is a must-watch for romance movie fans like me!

The only reason I didn't give Wait With Me a 10/10 was because there were a couple times where the music overpowered the dialogue. Specifically, during what author Amy Daws likes to call the spicy scenes. I could tell Kate and Miles were murmuring sweet dirty nothings to each other but I couldn't hear them. Other than that, I was thrilled how true to the book the movie was. As my title says, the casting was spot on and the chemistry between Madison Lawlor and Andrew Beirnot was perfect, as was the friendship between Kate and Lynsey. I've read all the books in the series except Dean's story (getting there) and I hope that Next In Line will be next in line for us fans!

Wait for Me is the latest movie to drop on the romance streaming channel PassionFlix. Adapted from Amy Daws novel, the screenplay held to the storyline. So much so that I felt as though I had already seen this movie, which was impossible. But in a way, I had, at least in my mind while reading the book, and this movie was just as I had imagined. PassionFlix perfectly cast lead actors Andrew Biernat and Madison Lawlor in the roles of Miles and Kate, their onscreen chemistry sizzling. With all the humorous and tender moments to choose from, I have to say one of my favorites was the GRAND GESTURE. Anyone looking for a light, fun, feel-good movie must watch this one.

This is the spicy romance novel Wait with Me by Amy Daws brought to life by Passionflix, who handled it with their usual care and attention to detail/dialogue!

The acting was great and the on screen chemistry between Madison Lawlor and Andrew Biernat was off the chart thanks to some great casting and delicate directing.

The story is about Kate an author who writes erotic romance under the pen name Mercedes Lee Loveless. She still technically lives with her ex-boyfriend, who is away for the summer, because she does not want to give up her house which is situated next door to her best friend Lyndsey and in the neighborhood of her other best friend Dean.

With her breakup house having bad mojo, Kate has been unable to finish her next book...enter Tire Depot where like writing magic she gets her groove back and is incredibly productive in their "comfort center" with free pastries and coffee. She sneaks in for weeks working on her novel and eventually meets the hot mechanic Miles. These two unlikely friends strike up a friendship that becomes friends with benefits. The problem, Miles isn't ready for a relationship and thanks to his lying ex is very distrustful of women who lie...and Kate, while trying to fly under the radar at Tire depot, introduced herself as her pen name Mercedes and is trying to bravado her way through being a girl who is ok with casual sex.

The romantic story was great and these two had chemistry for days...the only thing I would have liked more of was spice. Don't get me wrong, it has spice...I just wanted more. Otherwise no complaints. I know I will be watching it again and I can't wait to see what Passionflix is going to turn out next!

Highly recommend to romantics and friends of romantic fiction...you'll love it!

Totally unpopular opinion but as an avid PF original subscriber I've watched every movie and show- and I find (with the exception of the earliest movies) anything directed by Tosca herself is just tough to watch. A couple take exception here but in general they feel slow moving, forced acting and I just don't fully enjoy them.

As I watched Wait With Me I was shocked how much I was loving the movie, then I looked it up and realized Musk didn't direct this, ding ding ding.

I truly don't say this to be mean, it's just a preferred style of directing - with the exception of Resisting Roots, which is also not directed by Musk herself (but woof that was a rough one to get through and I've worried more would go this direction- tho admittedly I think casting had more to do with the issues for that movie)- and Tosca doesn't hit the mark for me. This one just WORKED. The style, the cast, the flow- it was pure enjoyment from the get. Also a fabulous book- so that helps!

I haven't reviewed a lot of these movies because honestly I have a love hate relationship with a few as of late... (pls bring back the early days of Hollywood Dirt, Afterburn and Matchmaker's Playbook!!) but this one was worth a rave! Thanks for this PF. Now, can we get the rest of the books? There's a thousand Gabriel.. I'm just asking for 2 or 3 of Amy's now!!
