REVIEW:

I need a cheesy, lovey movie and this has been on my TW list for a while so I dived in. 

We follow Gavriela who's life has fallen to shambles and she suddenly wins a contest and wins a rustic New Zealand Inn. It turns out to be too much work for her so she teams up with contractor Jake Taylor to help her. 

Okay...ya'll....I want to win an Inn in New Zealand and live my best life. I want that goat too!!!! It's a lot of work since the Inn was trashed, but still. I WANTS IT! I WANTS IT BAD!

Gabbie was adorable. She is spunky and funky and an independent woman. Dean wasn't bad but he doesn't want to commit to you sweetie. I would've jumped ship a long time ago esp after we meet Jake. *drools* He was adorable and big hearted. 

Now...this is super Hallmarkie and cheesy and SO unrealistic. It's fun though! 

Is it wrong I felt bad for our "baddie" Charlotte? She isn't really bad. Just..selfish and wants that Inn something bad. I did feel bad for her but I wanted to kick her when she did something (not spoiling). 

Overall, very cute and great with a glass of wine! I recommend this. 4 stars.

It did have a lot of Hallmark feels, but without the ultra cheesiness. I enjoyed it, I knew what I was getting, it was light, and omg I am meant to live in NZ!
