About the Film
What’s the secret to a successful marriage? According to Colorado’s leading marriage counselor, Maddie Morgan (played by Candace Cameron Bure from "Full House" and "Make It Or Break It"), honesty is the key to successful long-term relationships. Ironically, Maddie has never been married and doesn’t always follow her own advice. When an opportunity arises to discuss hosting an advice program with media mogul Terrance Bishop (played by Ronny Cox from "Stargate SG-1," and "Beverly Hills Cops"), Maddie jumps at the chance. Through a misunderstanding, she receives an invitation for her and her spouse to join Bishop at his New Mexico ranch. Fearful that being single will wreck the interview, Maddie conspires with Mark Crane (played by David James Elliott from "JAG"), an old college friend who is a recent widower and father of two teenagers, to pose as a married couple for the weekend. A series of comical misunderstandings mark the weekend, leaving Maddie emotionally involved with Mark's family and battling with her own conscience. Will she confess the truth about her marital status or the feelings she’s developing for Mark? Telling the truth may have its consequences, but ultimately it’s what opens our hearts and brings out the best in each other.

What I'm excited about
This movie looks like it has great family messages and some interesting mishaps and teachable moments. I have to admit that I'm still a closet fan of DJ from childhood, so it will be interesting to see Candace Cameron Bure all grown up!
