This was a good movie.

I saw this movie once before a long time ago and just watched it again on Lifetime. It's rather good, especially for a Lifetime movie. Yasmine Bleeth was very believable as a woman desperate for a child and Richard Grieco was perfect as the husband who would stop at nothing to get one for her. Except in a few scenes where he commits crimes, he is the perfect husband and they are the perfect couple. But he has this sociopathic streak that shines through when he blatantly lies to his wife about things like house payments and lawyers. The story is very good and you have a hard time truly hating anybody in this film. As strange as it is, the guy was being a good husband. He had a funny way of showing it though. The ending was sad, but right. You really get to feel for the characters. Highly recommended.

I so love this movie and they do not show it much on Life Time but they replay so many of the same movies while rarely airing this movie.

Her husband loved her so much and killed the girl to steal her baby for his wife. True love. He would do anything to make his wife happy but in the end she turned on him when she found out the baby was stolen and the mom was murdered. He did it for her, how could she turn on him? dang!

It was love, but it was some twisted form of love. Didn't he kill some poor girl to get her baby?
