For some unknown reason, most Lifetime movies have two different titles, which unnecessarily confuses things.
I saw this one as My Husband's Secret Brother, so to extend that title with the plot in a nutshell:
>>So 'my husband's secret brother' (a sociopathic plastic surgeon with malpractice suits galore) killed his brother and then married me with the sole intention of killing me and my daughter so he could steal our inheritance that we received from my first husband, whom he had killed with the same motive, who was actually his HALF-brother.<<
**NOTE: The View on Films reviewer here incorrectly stated that the title referred to the mechanic brother William, who comes into the movie later on. It does not refer to him - it refers to the lead actor/character Joey Lawrence as Kevin Richardson. It was no secret that Jon and William were full brothers. But no one knew about Kevin, especially because he had a different last name, due to him being the first child of his mother and someone else before she married Jon and William's father.
Guess I've watched too many Lifetime movies, but I knew that Jackie's best friend and dance studio partner was in on it somehow, which was finally revealed at the end.
I have to give them credit for repeating several times that Kevin had medical malpractice lawsuits against him so as to answer the audience wondering why a plastic surgeon would need to steal an inheritance.
The abrupt, overnight turnaround of the mechanic brother from wanting nothing to do with Jackie and no desire to help her to just the opposite in less than two days made no sense, but of course obviously contrived plot devices seldom do.
Summary: just another run of the mill LMN drama that had nothing whatsoever to set it above the rest....meh.
Grade D- / 2 out of 10.
