Author Emelia Bloom (Melora Hardin) is coming back to her home town during her book tour to try and reconnect with her children whom she hasn't seen in 5 years. We follow her, Taylor and Zach's point of view of their lives and their reunion. Zach is an artist and is currently working on a mural for a bookstore and Taylor has her own plant shop.
I didn't know what I was walking into and I absolutely love it. We have a cameo from Paul Campbell (I love him) and from Matthew Kevin Anderson who is a Hallmark frequent flyer as well.
I thought it was quite refreshing from what Hallmark usually offers, several storylines intertwined that wrapped up in one. And most importantly, that apparently the homophobics didn't understand, it is not the love story of two strangers or two lovers who reunited but one of the purest love there is: one between mother and child.
What I loved was that it is the story of real people: there is a LGTB+ couple, the dificulty of coming out to one's family (barely acknoledged but still there), the struggle of loss and health issues., the grudge against parents, competitive yet supportive siblings, you know, real life stories?
This ending leaves room for a sequel, which I would watch.
