While this made-for-TV movie is simple and light, I must give it some credit. First, it is set in California's Napa Valley, a place I have visited many times. But I was fooled, thinking it was really filmed there, when in fact it was filmed in South Africa. Second the star is from England but it sure sounded like an American to me, sort of in a Billy Zane sort of way.Jonathan Cake stars as older brother Regan Montana, the smart one, educated at Yale and having spent the past 10 years living and working in London. Dad died and they intend to sell their excellent Napa Valley land and winery to a foreign interest.Kevin Otto is the younger brother Denny Montana, not as smart and certainly not as dedicated to his law profession as his older brother. In fact after Regan shows up it quickly becomes apparent that Canadian Joely Collins as paralegal Claire Barnard is really doing all the work in the law office.Claire and Regan are at odds right away, seemingly completely in their likes and dislikes. In this kind of movie that usually means they will fall in love before the end of the movie.Dyan Cannon has a small role but she is the mother of the boys, Abby Montana.A lightweight story, but a pleasant way to kill 90 minutes.

Finally, I watched a Harlequin turned TV movie that was pretty cute and romantic!! Let me just say that I found out VERY VERY late that the Harlequin series was turned into TV movies. They had the "Shades of Love" series done in the late 80's and of course the Harlequin series for the 90's. I watched one of the Shades of Love series, and it was OK, but unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to enjoy it that much anymore. I still have two more 80's tapes coming that I ordered so who knows I might change my mind. Then I watched one of the Harlequin series (A Matter of Marriage and Broken Lullaby) which I also reviewed - they were both alright, but I wasn't really that impressed - yet. Now DIAMOND GIRL. This DVD I ordered (along with So Hard to Forget which I shall watch later this week!) because I liked the plot and I saw it got good reviews. Well, if you are a Harlequin romance lover, you like hunky men and like cute plots, then you will like Diamond Girl! First off, Regan is EXTREMELY hunky and cute. GREAT body. I thought he personified the mean sorta arrogant hero type VERY well. Claire is definitely cute in her own way and she I think the actress gave the Claire character justice. She was spunky, perky and a bit sarcastic - which was cute! A definite great match to Regan. Now Denny, the playboy brother - yup - he was perfect too. The way he talked was a bit too, smarmy or syrupy - cant find the perfect word to describe but the Denny actor definitely looked and acted the part. As for the story it was VERY cute. Just like in a romance novel ya know? There were no boring parts, and the scenery looked great. All in all I RECOMMEND this movie. If your a sappy romance lover, this one is for you!

I liked this movie and would really like to see it again. What I'd really like to do is buy it but can't find it anywhere. I caught it on WE like other users but didn't get to see it again to tape it. The acting was kinda iffy but Jonathan Cake was beautiful. It gave you a good feeling like a romance novel does. I'd recommend it if you have a non-busy day to yourself.

I liked this movie, thought it was very cute. It's not going to win any Oscars, but I doubt that was the intent. Nice "feel good" movie. Would love to purchase it and add to my collection, but I have been unable to track it down and have not seen it aired again in over a year.
