If you're looking for a standard Hallmark Romcom with a bit extra to it, this is the movie for you. She's a career-driven radio adviser to women, always advising her audience to "be an island" (especially after her fiancé dumps her); he's also in the business, but his métier is single men who want to stay that way.
With a set-up like that, of course they wind up as a wrangling advice couple on the same radio show. Also, inevitably they will fall in love, but they won't figure that out until the end of the movie.
In the meantime, they wrangle, and Alison Sweeney and Jonathan Scarfe are very good at that, speaking in short, clipped, snarky put-downs. Normally I would credit the writer, the actors or the director, but I'd really like to know who the editor of this one is. The cutting, although simple, helps the pace immensely, which is what editing is supposed to do.
There is nothing that is extraordinary in this one, but here's what happens when everyone does a good job: a superior result.

This one was really good, and the scene crawling through the doggie door was priceless, Loved It and Yes I recommend it. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 1/25/2021
I like Allison Sweeney. She's a quality actress. I knew her more from her Day of Our Lives tenure, than I did with Hallmark, but I'm watching her in more Hallmark films now these days. I had fun watching this movie. Crawling through the dog door, lol! I've done that before after being locked out of my house. What else can I say? It's worthy of watching over and over again.
I suspect that the writers were fans of Jane Austen. I think Austen would have enjoyed this immensely. I certainly did!
The banter is fun and the main characters have a lovely arc. Perfect chemistry between Scarfe and Sweeney. One of Hallmark's best!

This movie is all about the banter back and forth between Alison Sweeney and Jonathan Scarfe. In this movie, the adversarial banter goes on longer than in a lot of movies of this type.
Both characters have very tough exteriors which are difficult to like. And it's a little more than just being tough on the outside. Both are stubborn advocates for their own gender and both exhibit some of those gender mid twentieth century stereotypes. There's a nice touch there in that each also one has at least one major characteristic opposite to those stereotypes.
Nick's softer side starts showing up before Sonia's, but they both have one. Nick also starts to show that inside he respects the opposite sex more than his reputation allows.
The story follows a predictable pattern with some well used plot devices like the misunderstood overheard conversation. But the strength of this movie isn't the story. It's in the relationships and the chemistry between the two leads.

Lo sapevi?
- BlooperEarly in the movie, when Sonia is filling in at the Chicago station, her fiance calls the main switchboard of the station and the receptionist/operator patches him directly through to the on-air call-in line . . . and, unknowingly, she puts him on the air. Chances are something like that would never happen . . . particularly on a major market station. Sorry but, to this career broadcaster, that's a "red flag."
