Synopsis:
Leo is a successful author who is experiencing a tough writer’s block. Feeling the pressure to finish the new installment of his popular series of books, Leo swaps homes with his best friend, Ellie, for a period of time. During his stay at Ellie’s place, Leo ends up meeting Matt, who helps him get out of his own way when it comes to writing something new and inspiring. Leo and Matt’s newfound friendships turn into something far more meaningful, just as Ellie is experiencing a similar situation with Sam.
Quick Thoughts:
This is actually a rather enjoyable queer romance film. Sure, it’s got all of Hallmark’s tropes worked in – but there’s equally something captivating about it all, which is why those tropes exist. It’s clear that something is blossoming, but both Leo and Matt are torn between having their own lives across the country. We know how it all ends before the movie starts, of course! But the journey there is why this queer film is worth watching.
