I found this Hallmark romance to be a little disappointing.
They always say: (regarding film) don't tell us, show us. And in this film, whatever chemistry is supposed to exist between the leads, it is not demonstrated much. Also, the story revolves around an island that is purported to be so beautiful, so it could have been shown more.
Claire (Leah Renee) is on a mission to protect a local island from development when she meets Tom (Chris McNally), who owns a boat. The two do not really connect emotionally until he commits to helping her on her quest to save the island. During this period, Claire attends three weddings, which serve as backdrop for much of the narrative.
Two things I did enjoy were shots of the harbor and the lighthouse location, which was an inspired setting for one of the wedding ceremonies.
Leah Renee's performance was very quiet, which made it difficult to generate energy, romantically or otherwise.
