Hallmark seems to be stuck in a rut, using the same script over and over.
Beautiful, successful female lead with good job that everyone loves. Her boyfriend is a pompous ass given only trite lines and written so that it's clear that he's going to do something selfish and alienate the heroine. In comes the new man on the scene for some contrived reason and after some requisite dislike, they find they are soul-mates and fall in love. End with heroine misreading the signals and getting ready to leave when new love interest bursts onto the scene to save her. Most of the Christmas movies from Hallmark have the same plot so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that this is no different. The only thing missing is some cheesy snowfall at the end which is required for Christmas movies.
They definitely need a new writing staff.
