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!

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!

Most other reviewers have read some book they keep mentioning. They view the movie as some fantasy retelling of the book they enjoyed.

The MOVIE, IS, UTTERLY TERRIBLE. It's just stupid. There is no chemistry between the two leads. The guy just cannot emote anything. He's a bore. He's supposed to be good looking but that doesn't make him attractive.

They have nothing between them. It's entirely contrived nonsense. It doesn't follow the romantic comedy formula for a movie. It's virtually unwatchable. The characters are poorly written.

It's not funny and it's not romantic. It's just a really bad movie.

Wait With Me is a sweet, funny, and steamy rom-com. Madison Lawlor and Andrew Biernat truly brought Miles and Kate to life so faithfully and their chemistry lit up the screen. Their performances and emotions they conveyed were brilliant! I also loved that you could feel the chemistry between the entire cast. I was smiling and laughing throughout most of the film and was left with warm feelings afterwards. The cinematography was visually stunning and David Gregory did a wonderful job on the screenplay. Passionflix has truly honoured Amy Daws book and it was a joy to watch this adaptation come to life on screen.

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!
