The novel, The APPLE ORCHID was a wonderful read but this movie tired to used just bits of it and to me it flopped! They could have made a small series of the novel and had something special. What a shame!
The back story of WWII was a very interesting part of the book as was Tess's meeting with the woman who told her the story. Hallmark tried to just make a quick romance and missed so much. If you liked this move at all, read the Apple Orchid and the and follow up novel, THE BEE KEEPERS BALL. Both really wonderful reads and you too will see how Hallmark really missed the MARK on this one. Lets hope they do better in the future.
