For one thing, this story is too much like too many other stories on the same channel. So many plot points are almost an exact copy of others before this.
How can a man even consider shattering the heart of the woman he supposedly loves. Crushing her soul. Destroying her dreams. The movie makes it very clear how much the store means to her. It upsets me that she even considers him if he would do anything to harm her that way. He can't possibly love her if he would do that. OK, I realize that it appears to be career suicide to do otherwise and if that's the way he sees it, then be honest and walk away from her, and he should have realized that long before it came to crisis point.
Maggie Lawson is the only redeeming thing about this movie as a happy and delightful young lady. Sam Page - meh. Not bad, but not the spark of Lawson. The couple who kept dancing around each other made a cute side story. Jacob Richter, as Jamie's ex, Matt, was a total non-entity - no life at all.

I LOVE this movie! It's truly one of the best Hallmark movies out there thanks to the cast!
and the main couple are both amazing actors and yes I could see the end from a mile long, and their chemistry is questionable but it was still a beautiful movie!
and for a bookworm like myself, the book store "True Love" is a dream!
Loved every second of watching this movie!
So, this is definitely not an original plot, but I do really like Sam Page and Maggie Lawson, so I enjoyed watching them together. The character of Jamie's ex, Matt, was unbelievable, unnecessary, and frustrating. Overall, it's a cute Valentine's Day movie if you like Hallmark romance movies, but not one of the best.
Not the most original story, but it just works.
If you expect an enjoyable movie, you can go no wrong with this one.
The 2 main characters create a nice base for the entire movie, Jamie (Maggie Lawson) delightful as always sets up the tone and Sawyer (Sam Page) compliments her perfectly. Their chemistry is not outstanding, but it just gives us an easy feeling thought the movie.
The rest of the cast compliments the same pleasant atmosphere that gives the viewer a warm feeling without doing too much.
I recommend this one, to anyone who wants a nice movie without expecting a lot.
6.6 out of 10 stars.

I watch Hallmark romantic comedies for one reason: to be whisked away to another world where reality isn't the number one priority. This movie was perfect for me! I love this cast! Maggie and Sam play off each other perfectly. Maggie's comedic sense is so good and Sam had the great sense as to play off our of her perfectly to make it work beautifully and not make her look silly. Yes, predictable storyline. But I don't mind. The set was beautiful aesthetically, love the cast, I can watch without cringing at language or violence, happy ending, and a kiss at 57 minutes after the hour. That's why I watch these movies and this one was perfect!
