One of the worst for Hallmark. The lead actress had to be a size ZERO and didn't look healthy. The makeup was horrible. No chemistry between anyone. Plot wasn't even that good. Pass on this one.
I don't know if it was the script or the casting that was at fault, but I just couldn't believe in any of this. I especially couldn't buy Chelsea Kane as "love expert" Joanna Moret. And some of the dialogue (especially George MacAllen's) was ridiculously unnatural.
This feels like something David Lynch was meant to direct -- or is it just that Gary Brennan reminds me of Jack Nance?

This movie is so bad, it is hard to know where to begin. The
"stars" are miscast. The lead actress is a walking poster for anorexia, and her recent weight loss distracts from even attempting to take this movie seriously. The leading man seems much more suited for the second leading lady. I love Hallmark movies, but this one is such a misfire, that it is embarrassing.

In agreement with the other reviews , this is the worst Hallmark Movie! It's airing now and I can't watch it, it's that bad!!
Unbelievable, with all the bad reviews, they are actually showing it again.
The writing was on par with a third grader. So disappointing.Characters were flat, and surface... please don't waste your time.
I love Christmas movies but the story line with this one was horrible. Might have been found the leading lady very unattractive bad makeup horrible wig made her hair look dirty in washed daily clothes that was to young for her didn't compliment her at all. Truly showed was a low budget film

Okay I don't normally critize a person's looks but this female heroine looked terrible. Her hair chopped off like a preschooler, her make up looks clownish, and her dress in the first scene shoeing her boney bare arms made it too painful to watch anymore of it.
I couldn't even give that Hallmark a try.
And the plot was so hashed from other Hallmarks that it was stupid.
Sorry but give it the lowest rating.

A bad acting boring so called Christmas movie . The lead actress Chelsea Kane is way too thin / borderline anorexic it's not a good look and her acting skills are not great . Back to drama school I say . This is the kind of movie you used to find back in the DVD 📀 days in the bargain basket gathering dust for £1:99 / 99 cents ...

The storyline has been done before....the pretend boyfriend. However, this one clearly lacked the chemistry between the characters and actors. I gave it a 1star for effort...besides....you can't give zero stars, which this movie clearly deserves. This is definitely not up to the quality entertainment and enjoyment of a Hallmark movie. My advice, don't waste your time watching this.

That is the skinniest Chick I've seen on TV that wasn't in a eating disorder documentary. Not health looking. Please give her some Christmas Cookies...

So terribly distracting too thin actress. When a woman is naturally lean you can tell; it is part of her. And when a woman is way, too unnaturally thin, like this actress, you can tell it's malnourishment or eating disorders. Her bones protrude. Costuming dressed her in sleeveless, vee necked tight dress that only accentuate her unnatural thinness. I cannot imagine if the camera adds 10#s what this poor woman looks like in person. Just way, way too difficult to watch. Someone needs to help her. And casting should be reprimanded. Shame on Hallmark for propagating this unhealthy female body. Couldn't watch anymore.
