At first, it seems as though Kathleen and Sam come up with the notion of posing as man and wife all by themselves; but as this made-for-TV romantic comedy-fantasy progresses, it is clear that two other people are actually pulling the strings--and there's a third character looming in the shadows! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    A very cheesy, corny, b-list Christmas movie. It was awesome. McCormick's hair looked a little dirty though...like when you don't take a shower for a while. But by doing this, your hair retains a lot of the oils that shampoos will strip from it. So I understand where he was going... read more with that.

    Very sweet and enjoyable holiday movie. I particularly enjoyed the comedy and the ways both Sam and Kathleen overcame their walls they used to shelter themselves. I would consider this a "Lifetime Movie Network" movie, but that doesn't mean they are all bad!
