I really enjoyed this one. I'm at a point where I am watching my favorites over and over so giving a new one was a change up. I'm really glad I gave it a shot. It's a love story, of course, but the problems that the leads have are real and believable. The disability from a stroke can be really daunting and at a young age, it's very believable that it would make someone that bitter. Natalie Hall is a very likable actor and did well with this character. I have seen Corey Sevier in other Hallmark xmas movies and this is by far my favorite with him in the lead. Some reviewers say they didn't have chemistry, but I really disagree. I thought the balance of her falling for him without making him feel like a charity case was good. And on the other side, he was bitter about life, but didn't throw a fit when, for example, she took his coat off for him. The son was a brat, but that was the point. Others were annoyed by this....he is also going through tough changes. All in all, I say watch it! A nice break from an event planner ending up with her high school sweetheart 😜
