Jordan Donavan, a photographer in New York, is so disappointed when after five years of going steady Edward Morgan offers her not marriage but just to move in with him, that she accepts the match-making arranged via a magazine by her female friend with Tyler Ross, a horse rancher in the West, whose candidacy was actually also posted by his sister. After a bad start they soon grow closer.

This is one great romantic movie.As a western movie lover,and one who sits well in a saddle, oh,and one who buys flowers for his wife, well at least twice a year, I think I qualify as a romantic.This movie gives me all of this and more.Terry Polo,who is in my top five female actresses hits this one out out of the park big time.She plays her role so well, you empathize with her every step of the way throughout the whole movie.McCarthy does a great job as a regular guy who has lost everything he has ever cared about in his life,and has a real hard time getting past it.What can I say about J. Kenneth Campbell in the scene at the grave site,when he puts Tyler's flowers in his vase and then breaks down.Yes and we even have B.J. and the Bear Greg Evigan one of my favorites,Patricia Kalember as Tyler's sister great job and David Jean Thomas loved him in this movie.I could go on,but I won't except to say that Polo does hit it out of the park twice as an actress and in the softball scene and the ending is great, it involves New York city a small colt and an offer.I own this movie and never tire watching it, I think you'll love it to.

This is a wonderfully realized television movie starring Teri Polo and Andrew McCarthy.McCarthy, as the embittered widower, sullen and angry with life, shows that he has become a masterful matured actor. He has really graduated from the days of the college or high school teen movies that he starred in years back.What makes this film so good is the way that the McCarthy character and Teri Polo gradually fall in love. How they get together is interesting enough. His sister writes an ad for her brother to meet someone, Polo's friend is upset that her friend's 5 year romance seems to be going nowhere and answers the ad for her friend.This brings about the Polo trip to the west where she immediately shows McCarthy that she can handle a rural life as well as his apparent insults.This is a heartwarming tale featuring the animals on the farm and an embittered father-in-law who blames McCarthy for his daughter's death after she gives birth to a baby girl who also dies.

The best movie I have seen in a long time.The beautiful landscaping was breath taking.The love that you are able to show in the movie is so heart felt. The scenes and perfect imaging of the horses will forever stay with me.The deep spiritual message that is given goes beyond words.The life struggle that people today face are shown with an angelic light shining on every outcome. My tears cleansed my face as I watched with unspoken words.Mr. Larry Levinson , I will watch every movie you produce because of the Divine Love. You are a gift from GOD! Be Blessed

I am a 55 year old male and I loved this "chick flick". I was going to go to bed at 9 PM but at 8 pm, my wife turned the Hallmark channel on and started watching this movie. By 9 PM, I was so hooked, I had to stay up and watch the whole movie. Teri Polo is so cute in this movie. I loved her part. This is a movie that I would like to buy and watch over and over again. My all time favorite movie is "Pretty Woman" and this ranks right up there with it. I would recommend this movie to anyone of all ages and all genders. It reminds me of a Harlequin Romance novel but I really didn't care. It was just so cute and engaging. It also had beautiful scenery and some beautiful horses.
