    Blown away

    This is a FANTASTIC movie; a real gem. And with GREAT acting and chemistry between the 2 main characters. Whoever bashes this movie is a bitter and sad human being who needs to get a life.

    I can watch this movie over and over.

    Kimberley is a very talented actress and Lucas is one fine man. They make a beautiful onscreen couple and they rock the screen.

    All the characters are so real and it is refreshing to see the females looking more natural: eg hair and faces. And the 2 main men are very fine....

    This is definitely one of the best love stories. Absolutely loved it!

    With this movie there is hope for Hallmark.

    Well done; story, acting to backdrop

    The female actresses in this movie were believable. Kimberley is a favorite, with her down to earth, 'someone I could hang with' portrayals. She does not over act and that is one of the reasons I selected this movie. She, her movie sister and mom co-stars, were great. The 2 main male actors in this movie, I gotta say, pretty sexy and the acting was engaging. I've been a fan of Denton for some time and this Bryant ?!?!... I may want my own hand selected cowboy hat (sorry husband). Readers, you'll have to watch to get that. 🐎 This movie had substance and was not a chop off the predictable block. Very enjoyable.

    A mature romance set in the American West...horses, hats and cowboy boots!

    In this Hallmark romantic film, Rebecca is a professor of the American West who is chasing tenure. She takes her kids, Ollie and Noah, to a working ranch with her Mother Maureen and her sister Cassidy. There she meets a handsome cowboy, who turns out to be a former rodeo star and current horse whisperer...who just happens to be her sister's new boyfriend.

    I have loved Lucas Bryant ever since he played the romantic lead Nathan in the Haven series. So, I was thrilled to see him in this Hallmark film. My favorite scene was the meet cute in the hat shop, when Jake picks out three hats for the kind of woman Rebecca is. I loved seeing James Denton and I thought Lynda Boyd, who played Rebecca's mother Maureen, was wonderful.

    Kimberley Sustad does a great job playing the widow Rebecca, who is not only trying to do the right thing...but questioning herself. I thought she and Lucas Bryant had great chemistry and I am hoping they will get more screen time.

    I loved the song Cowboys Like Me...it was an instant Shazam for me and I will be adding it to my playlist.

    This is a big recommendation to romantics who love hallmark films.

    I love it!

    I have now watched this movie so many times I have lost count. It does have some flaws but the characters are real to me and the story is a mature one and one I can relate to! I love Kimberly and Lucas together and I hope they make more movies together. Love it! Falling in love for mature characters is what I love. No silly royalty or fantasy here. More of this please! Love it

    Very Romantic!

    I loved this movie. It was romantic (which is the Hallmark standard), but it wasn't formula (you know, the tired old story about a boy meeting a girl, they hate each other then fall in love...yawn). We have a unique plot and a mom who loves her kids and whose kids love her back. Yes, she's a widow (but how can an older woman fall in love again if she isn't a widow and ex-husbands tend to be so messy). The young men who play their sons do a great job and the girl who plays the oldest son's girlfriend was absolutely adorable!

    Without giving away the story line, I think I'll just say die hard Hallmark fans will love this movie.

    P.s. I didn't give it a 10 because I reserve that for Oscar-worthy movies, but a 9 means I love, love, love it.

      Aired as the fourth of six original films in The Hallmark Channel's 2024 "Fall into Love" lineup.
    • Goofs
      In the movie and also the description they use UC Boulder and anyone and everyone especially in Boulder and Colorado knows it is CU and has always been referred to as CU. So to say or use anything else is wrong.
