At first the show seemed promising, that there could be a hallmark vibe with less predictable writing. However this is not the case. Many of the side characters are overly complicated for no reason and don't add to the story. **spoilers** I was intrigued by the mystery through the first half of the series about where Mel's husband was. At first I assumed it was cliche and he must have died. Then once it was revealed she had lost the baby I thought maybe they would have a deeper plot about how the two of them were still married but the experience tore them apart blah blah. This would leave an opening for a story-line later. Nope. Her husband is dead too. They string that part of the story on for so long it's unnecessary. And that's where the story lost me. Both her baby and her husband are dead and now this new man is going to sweep her off her feet and make her life perfect again. It's just too much I feel like they should have picked one not both and make her life the saddest possible origin story.
