This one missed the mark for me
Of course this was predictable, all these Hallmark romances are. But you can still be engaged in the story, and this one was just boring. No humor, no suspense, no tension. I was disappointed because it was based on a very well-regarded Romance writer's book. I liked the setting and the actors and the orphaned niece seemed to be a good hook. But all the problems were solved so quickly and easily. the little girls trauma, the girlfriend, the bossy toy store manager, the brothers squabbling, the misunderstanding at the end. I don't like a lot of angst in these little movies, but a little struggle and conflict to make you root for a good resolution or catharsis is a must.
