There must be Senior Producers , Directors, Editors at Hallmark who check product as part of their job. Whoever allowed release of this should be sacked - and their saved salary could be used to fund 2 more Hallmark movies (win win situation!) Have seen Williams in another movie where he was bad - where he was upstaged by a horse. I've had salads with more charisma.

Plot summary
When Jo realizes that her family's general store in Daisy Hills (built by her late mother) is losing profit, her father Duke calls in a favor to help out the store. Unfortunately, Duke's help is Jo's ex-boyfriend, Blake, former Daisy Hills native-turned-New York business consultant. They argue over the approach to saving the store: Jo understands the personal touch needed for a small town while Blake focuses more on how to make a profit. Eventually, they reach a compromise and find themselves falling back in love. But when Duke suffers a heart attack, the store's future comes into jeopardy forcing Jo and Blake to make a decision about their future too.

Story is fine but actors wrong agewise - again!
Typical Hallmark plot (unoriginal - fine) and mis-matched casting (agewise - not so fine). Hallmark really needs to make more movies for 35+ characters now many of their familiar leads are older. These stars are my age, but often seen playing characters a decade younger, which I find unrealistic and disorienting. In this movie, like Italia Ricci's 'Rome in Love', the actress is, and yes looks, too old to be the sister, going on the timeframe of the plots. They could easily have got round a 15+ age gap between the sisters if it wasn't for the fella supposedly being so significant to the younger sister - she remembers him so much that the sisters can't be more than about a decade different. However Cindy Busby could play the mother of a teenager now, almost a decade on from her Cedar Cove lawyerish days. It's realistic to have older characters childless / still living at home for financial/family reasons, but If Hallmark isn't careful, viewers will grow out of the channel if the ages aren't well represented generally.
Pretty Bad
I admit I only made it through the first 20 minutes or so. Seen a lot of Hallmark movies and this is definitely in the bottom 25%. The screen was filled with robots mouthing a script generated by a (not so sophisticated) computer. It's basically background noise with Fall colors. Don't waste your time.
