The voice actors did a great job. They have nice voices but those voices could not rescue the songs from the cringe-worthy cheese factor of the lyrics. It was literally uncomfortable to watch those parts. A morbid kind of fascination, combined with my curiosity about how the story would develop, was what kept me watching. The story was good until we got to the part where the FMC's "brother"/cousin confesses to being in love with her. They were blood related cousins since their mothers were sisters. Plus, they were raised together from toddlers and treated like siblings. The FMC didn't even know he wasn't her actual brother until that point. She was shocked, sure, but then she wasn't grossed out by the guy she'd always seen and loved as a brother confessing he had "romantic feelings" for her. Yeah, you don't just stop loving someone in that instance but you sure do get freaked out and make your own feelings crystal clear. That is incest, plain and simple. I still kept watching hoping it would be revealed that they weren't really related or something, anything that would make it all ok. That did not happen. Sorry, but that is just gross and wrong.

This is definitely one of Hallmark's better mystery movies. I am no mystery officianado-by far-but I can usually figure out 'who done it' fairly early on. I still enjoy these movies but not quite as much as the ones that keep me guessing longer. This movie kept me guessing longer, so big bonus.

The two main stars, Nathalie Kelley, who played Chloe Day, & Colin Donnell, who played Aaron Maxwell, were great, as always. I have yet to see either of them disappoint in a role. Even if the script is average, they always shine.

However, I REALLY liked the supporting cast too, in particular Jonathan Dunn, who played Patrick Schaeffer, & Patti Murin, who played Sara Webb. Their characters were super fun & I was impressed by their deliveries. I truly hope to see them both in more movies, Hallmark or otherwise.
