14 lettres d'amour

Jackson has purchased part of Kallie's family ranch from her mother...the problem, he wants it all to start a therapy riding ranch. Unfortunately, recluse and avid mystery reader Kallie not only doesn't want to sell, but she uses her part for her goats who are needed for her goat milk products soap business. Kallie starts receiving historic love letters anonymously in her mailbox and in order to figure out who is sending them she starts going out with two of the town's bachelors, a teacher and a doctor...but could the letters be coming from someone a little closer to home.

Surprisingly decent story. I really appreciated the reading of the love letters and the slow farm chores...including the very realistic ever escaping goat! Slow build romance that was delightful. This was my first time seeing both Rebecca Sears and Franco Lo Presti and I think they both knocked it out of the park. Great addition to the Hallmark romance vault.

If you like poetry, especially historically famous poetry, then the first half of this movie will appeal to you more than it did to me. I'm deaf when it comes to poetry.

This movie is based on the secret admirer premise but about half way through there is a very nice twist. Fooled me completely. The reveal is not long after that and it is a little twisty also. That leads into the conflict which is where I had trouble following the why's of it. I thought Kallie overreacted and getting things put back together was a little rough.

I really liked the muffin metaphor toward the end.

Vanessa Sears and Franco Lo Presti were OK together but by no means sizzling chemistry.

I can't say much for the dialogue and there were a lot of sequences with little or no dialogue.

I've never seen these two main actors in anything and I was very excited to see that they were very good. The chemistry between them was electricity. Beautiful warm and romantic story.

This was an amazing movie. It had all the elements to make a movie delightful. The story line was interesting and the narrator of the poems made them come to life. The actors made their characters believable, which helped you to enjoy the story. Even the student in the class helped to smooze out an awkward situation.

Everything from the scenery, music and story line was great. I also loved that Kallie and Jackson told so much in this story by their expressions. Like when Jackson beamed while introducing Kallie to Mr. Fisher, These two have great chemistry and Hallmark should pair them together again.

I thought this was a precious movie. The main characters had amazing chemistry. Kallie is a genuine character who I couldn't help but cheer for throughout the movie. Job well done!
