Love in Design

Hannah McElroy (Danica McKellar) has hosted four seasons of her modern renovation show in Los Angeles. Network brass Wally wants to change it up and for her to renovate a historic manor in her hometown of Lewisburg. She reluctantly accepts but is shocked to find her ex Jeff Winslow (Andrew W. Walker) as her liaison with city hall. The former couple clashes and reconnects.

Obviously, Danica has decided on steering her career directly into the Hallmark lane. That's no crime and she's good at it. She has the natural goodness charms since her childhood days. She's Winnie Cooper for heaven's sake. As for her co-star, he's also a veteran of these movies. They have the basic chemistry to make this work and it's not terribly demanding. It's a simple Hallmark movie and it doesn't need to be more.

Hannah's modern renovation tv show needs a refresh and she is sent to her home town to remodel a historic manor. The twist is she is being over-seen by her ex-boyfriend the consulting architect for the local preservation society.

These two rarely agree on anything...except the feelings they have for one another.

Fun, happy-go-lucky, a little competitive but not as deeply romantic as some of the other Hallmark romances.

The donuts looked delicious! I also loved that the parents seemed like they could really be parents.

This is light fare, but romantic if that is what you are looking for.

Two old flames collide in a home improvement style Hallmark film that is boosted by two very likeable leads in Andrew Walker and the ever lovely Danica McKellar.

Yes, it's very predictable, and it drags a bit in places, but I cannot fault a film that thoroughly entertained me for the 86 mins run time too highly, because I thought it was warm, funny and heartfelt.

Home improvement shows are really fun to watch so a Hallmark romance set in a situation like that ought to be good to watch. The leads are generally likeable Danica isn't too perky so that's good. Andrew Walker is her architect love interest. They have enough chemistry. Wish they would have shown more home improvement and less romance.

Danica McKellar and Andrew Walker, two of Hallmark's favorite (and mine) finally together in a movie. While I didn't think it was the best movie out there, I didn't find it as terrible as the rest of the comments make it. 99 out of 100 of these movies are predictable and use the same formula, by now I just hope they don't ruin it and make me have a nice hour and a half.

Both leads shine on their own, and I do think they had chemistry together, I even find myself hlding my breath during one scene. The plot, while predictable, it was original. I don't think I've seen it in Hallmark before.

I was even happy with the final problem, it was believable and not pointless as they tend to be. While I'll probably won't watch again, I actually find it cute.
