The first thing that struck me was how unnatural the acting was in almost all the characters. That made me wonder if it was the directing or just a poor cast since I am not familiar with practically any of them. Gabrielle Christian and Matthew Smalley were so unnatural that their characters seemed weird. Both of them and Cody Ray Thompson seemed like they were trying too hard. At times I wanted to see more of Anna than Rose. I would say that Sarah Christine Smith was horrible, except I think that was exactly how she was meant to be - an over-the-top Influencer.
The story is bad on several levels. It does seem like it was written by a kid. It was a little confusing exactly what Rose was trying to do. The incident and follow-up that caused the conflict were stupid. What if the owner of record was an absentee landlord or corporation? On the other hand, what led to it should have caused some friction. And then by magic the inevitable happened. Poof.
There was also some stupid dialogue. "Do you like me. It. These fabrics?" followed by "Yeah, you're great... they're great" is just one example.

Plot summary
Fireman Rich welcomes back to their New York state small town St. Helen home his big sister Rose, who just inherited even bossier namesake grandmother's beloved vintage shop. While deciding whether to sell or run it. The fashionista is quitting a Brooklyn job and working on a crucial grant for non-profit project Fashion Up. That includes refurnishing an old old camp, so Rich gets Cole, the hunky jock who hardly noticed her at high-school, now a handyman, to help her by offering to do weekend shifts for Cole's fireman big brother Duncan who expects a baby. Working together -soon on more projects- brings them together, as his laid-back, instinctive and her over-organized approach prove complementary.

Poor all around
OK
This is a OK movie that I think the whole family can watch and enjoy, The acting was good. And the script was well written. Yes I recommend it. James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas.
Not the usual Hallmark standards
I have seen a lot of Hallmark films and know the usual standard is about the same.
This was the worst hallmark I have ever seen. The acting was very poor! Never seen acting this bad in a hallmark film.
