A Cozy Christmas Inn

This was a bit of a disappointment as I have grown to really like Jodie Sweetin and respect her work. I just ignored the fact that it was a sequel to a Candace C-B romance. It's not a real good idea to give Hallmark fans the idea that Happy Endings may not survive the test of time. It's kind of a buzz-kill.

This one did not survive the initial smell test. Why in the world would an international property developer want to buy a second rate B & B 300 miles north of Anchorage. Huh? And I say second rate, because check out Jodie's hotel room. I think white collar crime federal penitentiaries have fancier rooms minus the king sized bed. The Christmas decorations were ugly and fake.

I didn't like that Andy gave up his lucrative plane taxi service to fail at being an innkeeper. Not very romantic hero-like. The townspeople, especially the café owner were very annoying. Marinating some kind of meat in eggnog? I couldn't get that out of my mind. I like the subtle fun hints that Santa was his Dad. That was well done, if kind of incredible. I also liked that Jody had integrity and didn't push him to sell the place. Although actually not encouraging him to take the money and run was kind of against his best interests. Vivica Fox, her boss, did her job, and looked fantastic.
