This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
... View MoreLack of good storyline.
... View MoreA lot of fun.

... View MoreA pretty good one as Hallmark movies go, but if we had been playing the drinking game, we'd be pretty drunk!
... View MoreI agree with the previous review that this movie was just OK. I also agree that the winter cinematography was exceptional. I like the way cinematographers are utilizing drones lately, especially in winter scenes. Jack Turner looks a lot like Noah Wyle. He is new to acting and his acting is OK, but not memorable yet. With more experience it should improve.One stand-out is very pretty and talented Rukiya Bernard. I hope Hallmark taps her for a movie of her own in the future. I also thought that Bea Santos was the prettiest actress in the movie. I see she had the lead in Christmas Encore which I enjoyed much more. At least Hallmark did not have the recent "rinky-dink" music they have been using.
... View MoreYes, the title is a pun. Cara and Ben are from the same neighborhood in Seattle but they have never crossed paths. She is a journalist who dreams about publishing her own mystery book. He is the CEO of a snowboarding company who got into some "trouble". One thing led to another and they find themselves sharing a chalet on the mountains. So they are "forced" to share a space and they start spending time together and liking each other.The story was complex and it had an original plot considering they always use the same ones and it was not as "empty" as some of these movies tend to be but I personally think this is as good as they get. Taylor Cole and Jack Turner's chemistry is insanely good (it's all in their pupils) and deliver an acceptable and enjoyable performance. I really enjoyed Shawn and Megan's storyline as well as the fact that there were no ex boyfriend/girlfriend involved in the story: you know, when they break up and show up out of the blue to get them back? Always a bonus for me. The one thing I didn't like that much was that the ending felt rushed. I know they a have to last 1hour and 23m but with only two more scenes the ending would have been perfect.Edit: I actually didn't even remember these two had already worked together before. I may have to watch "My summer prince" again.While I enjoy Hallmark movies, I can count with my two hands the movies I would watch again, and I may include this one to the list...
... View MoreThe story is complex and contrived. A lot of points don't make sense which is normal for these movies, but in this case they were too much for me. How does the CEO of a company only get half the chalet, but get a $500 gift basket also? Some of the bosses in these movies are slave drivers, but this one, while not mean, is ridiculous. Apparently she doesn't sleep and works 24 hours even on weekends. The premise that Ben's dating life affects his company's bottom line also sounds a little ridiculous. As a sub-plot, the idea that Megan's wrist injury means she can't use a phone at all is also silly. There are just too many silly and contrived plotlines.Taylor Cole and Jack Turner do connect establishing a comfortable relationship, outside of the secrets. Still Jack Turner is a little reserved. Rukiya Bernard looks like someone to watch for as a possible lead in future Hallmark movies. She connects with Dewshane Williams to form a much more realistic relationship than Cara and Ben's. Both of these relationships are pleasant enough to watch in and of themselves until the silly plot messes up at least the one.
