07/26/2020 This is just my personal view. Bleah! There was no, zero, zilch chemistry between the leads and the story line is really absurd. We have a grown man, Tom Becker, who doesn't have PTSD (or so it is not mentioned in the show), who is a strong and intelligent man but who is drifting through life in a broken down houseboat with the only actual job he has as a dogwalker. What?! Are we supposed to find this kind of Hallmark lead actor romantic or attractive in any way? So the premise is thrown in that he is an army Vet. I think that insults Vets. I don't think vets would come home and be as happily unemployed as he is. And certainly nowhere close to being as dishonest. I would like to think that Vets are men of integrity and who would look to take on responsibilities in society – hey I could be completely wrong but regardless, this Tom Becker is presented to us as a lazy and deceitful man. Yucks!! Who wants to fall in love with that character? I always think Taylor Cole should be renamed Taylor Cold. She is an ice queen and I have no idea why or how she is cast as the romantic actress in Hallmark movies. Her smile never reaches her eyes and she is stone cold. She also always acts the role of a spoilt woman who feels somehow entitled to whatever she wants. In this show, she wants to be tenured so she will lie to get what she wants and betray people who have put their trust in her. If I knew a person like this in real life, if I saw her headed my way, I would turn tail and run. And the person in charge of wardrobe should be counselled. Harper wore what appeared to be football gear to the cocktail party. The straps of her dress made her shoulders look so bulked up, all that was missing was the face paint below her eyes and her helmet and she would be ready for a touchdown. Really horrible to the point of shudder to see her come down the stairs in that dress. And Tom says she looks beautiful. I didn't know if I was supposed to laugh or cry in horror. The only bond the two leads have in this show is in the shared lie and the threat of mutual destruction they both live under. And mutual destruction is bestowed upon them sure enough. And if you can believe it, the movie ends on that note. Whaaaat?! Come to think of it, both Harper and Tom deserve each other. They are both peas in a very rotting pod. Seriously, don't bother watching this show. Other than the beautiful art pieces, the human beings in this show are so far from beautiful, this might as well be a horror show.
