Wait with Me

Wait for Me is the latest movie to drop on the romance streaming channel PassionFlix. Adapted from Amy Daws novel, the screenplay held to the storyline. So much so that I felt as though I had already seen this movie, which was impossible. But in a way, I had, at least in my mind while reading the book, and this movie was just as I had imagined. PassionFlix perfectly cast lead actors Andrew Biernat and Madison Lawlor in the roles of Miles and Kate, their onscreen chemistry sizzling. With all the humorous and tender moments to choose from, I have to say one of my favorites was the GRAND GESTURE. Anyone looking for a light, fun, feel-good movie must watch this one.

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.

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!

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!

I love this series so was looking forward to the movie and was NOT disappointed! Andrew Biernat was made for the role of sexy "book boyfriend" Miles Hudson. Madison Lawlor nails the role of "smut writer" Kate Smith, AKA Mercedes Lee Loveletter, who loses her ability to finish her latest erotic novel until she visits Tire Depot.....and then gets her writing mojo back, but has to continue sneaking into the "comfort center" for free coffee and cookies to finish her book. And this is where she meets sexy mechanic, Miles. But. She introduces herself to him as her pen name, Mercedes. Of course we know THAT's going to create problems down the road.

There's laugh out loud moments (like when Kate's author friend has pizza secretly delivered to her at Tire Depot) and the friendship between Kate, Lynsey (Jordan Blair Brown) and Dean (Caleb Slovak) and between Miles and best friend Sam (Laith Chaz Wallschleger) all work well. I particularly loved the scene where Dean confesses his attraction to Kate. But the real star of this movie is the chemistry between Andrew and Madison as Miles and Kate, struggling thru "friends with benefits" and catching feelings along the way. These actors absolutely deliver with authentic, believable performances and capture the audience from scene number 1.

This story is a slow buildup to the realization that Miles (who has sworn off relationships after his disastrous last one) can't resist charming Kate (Mercedes to him) and starts to fall hard....leading up to her EX coming back to town to taunt them (terrific drunk "Dryston" scene by James Knight) and the realization that Miles didn't know the REAL name of the woman he was falling for.....

In summary, I highly recommend this latest PassionFlix original, it sticks very close to the book as PassionFlix productions always do, with terrific acting throughout. Andrew will make you swoon and realize Kate/Mercedes never had a chance to resist the sexy mechanic, Miles Hudson.
