Tré harsh to break-up with your boyfriend while celebrating your one year anniversary, but that’s what Kerri does! She realized her relationship with Adam wasn’t what it once was and she cut ties.
After doing so, she poured her heart out to David. Little did she know, David is the father of a student (Clara), the head of the PTO, and owner of the restaurant Kerri was in when she broke up with Adam. Feeling like she can’t get rid of David, what else does she do? She winds up trading services with him so he assists with a student project and she assists with a PTO project.
Two single adults spending a lot of time together while David’s daughter is playing Cupid…what do you think will happen? Watch and see!
Here’s my two cents on it. Warning there are a few minor spoilers.
I love strong women and Kerri definitely has a strong center. Sure, she’s a little unsure about herself due to circumstances in her life recently, but deep down, she has an inner strength.
I also really enjoyed a lot of the raw emotions in this movie. Kerri questions her previous choices and David questions his parenting. There’s a lot of realistic feelings we witness. Especially when they both start questioning if they’re ready for a new relationship.
Beyond all the mushy gooshy stuff was the CANDYGRAMS!! We had these as a kid. I remember getting them in middle school. It was great when your crush sent you one. It was equally great seeing the role they played in this movie. 😊
I can almost hear you asking. All this good stuff, why did I only give it 4 stars? It’s always the little things.
- Kerri wakes up in bed with a full face of obvious make-up.
- They cut to a commercial on a scene with Eva showing up and return to a completely new scene.
- Clara’s date for the dance. I don’t care if this was explained later, I still wasn’t happy that happened.
- The awkward scene at David’s house with Kerri announcing the finalists for the ABC award. I mean why is Eva staying at the same house? They’re divorced!
- and many more…
Don’t let my little things stop you from watching this great movie! It’s still worth watching and enjoying. Especially the beautiful ending. I loved all the lights!! Happy watching y’all!
