I gave it a 5/10 only because Kellie Pickler was so wrong in the movie. It was cute and the story had all the classic Hallmark "ahh's." Kellie was so stiff, emotionless and monotone. I Loved the guys, Tyler, Christopher and Patrick were endearing, funny and relatable. Like I said, I wanted to love it and was all settled in to enjoy it, but 20 min in I knew this wasn't going to be a keeper.

2019
Action / Drama / Romance
Plot summary
Midway, Utah is in contention with two other cities to be featured on Sterling Masters' (Christopher Russell) Holiday Adventures. Heading up Midway's push to get the attention which would give a much-needed boost to the local resort and recreation business industry is Aria (Kellie Pickler) whose family owns The Mistletoe Diner. As it turns out Sterling Masters is only the face of the show while his best friend Alex is the writer and heart of the show. Alex comes to the Mistletoe Diner in advance to gather intel. He butts heads with Aria, who is none too subtle about her idolization of Masters and is rubbed the wrong way by Alex's sarcastic remarks questioning Masters' dubious talents. Loosely based on NY Times best-selling author Richard Paul Evans' novel of the same name.

I wanted to love it...
Please Hallmark, no more Kellie Pickler
I have to say that I might have rated this higher if the female lead was someone else. I believe her acting is minimal at best, I really can't stand her singing and her screen warmth is minimal. Now on to the movie, it's OK - the best things are Tyler and Patrick. So, I watched to complete my Checklist, but won't watch again.
I'm a huge Hallmark supporter but please stop casting Pickler
I have been a huge Hallmark supporter for years, I can watch Hallmark movies all day everyday and not get sick of it. But Kellie Pickler is just too painful to watch. She has an amazing voice, but her acting is so awkward and it appears she is always forgetting her lines. Don't they notice this? I couldn't finish watching the Graceland one either. Both movies had so much potential. So disappointing, cute story and was nice to see Patrick Duffy. I'm sure Pickler can improve but the tough love needs to trigger some acting classes. Or please stick to singing.
