Found this to have much more enjoyable and more realistic characters than the Nikki Deloach/Andrew Walker oh you broke my heart characters. Both Wes Brown and Christine Ko were more down to earth and likeable characters; both on equal footing not the squeaky I'm better Nikki characters. Christine brings a professional aspect to the character and I think more appealing to the audience portraying an established, independent person who yes, has emotions but not the over the top ditzy or sobbing female. Also, these characters do not have the ever present toothy smiles with the dimples, they are much more realistic yet cute. Aunt Carol and Chris might be a bit over the top but bring the levity that the world also needs today, Having an Asian lead is new to Hallmark and hope to see more of Ms. Ko. Hallmark needs some new strong female leads. Blending in diversity in a lead and in support casting speaks to Hallmark recognizing its audience and reality. A very enjoyable movie and especially that special ritual between them.
