When Ethan arrives at the airport just in time to declare his undying love for his girlfriend, love appears to have conquered all. The scene, however, is really the ending of Ethan's novel, which his agent calls "unrealistic." Ethan soon meets a waitress, Jesse, and falls in love with her despite her growing devotion to Troy, a charming businessman. But the line between reality and fiction becomes increasingly blurred.

I don't think I really have any spoilers, but I do reveal something that doesn't show up for almost half the movie, so I marked this as spoilers. To me, this reveal is actually part of the setup for the story-line.This movie appears to use two of the standard romcom devices. 1) ***SPOILER*** The hanging secret; 2) girl courted by two guys. But it is definitely not as simple as that. In fact, although I figured out the hanging secret pretty early (it's pretty obvious), I definitely did not see the twist at the end. I thought this was up there with some of the best movie twists, especially for a romcom. Actually I thought the twist was a little unfair in that I don't think there were any clues to foreshadow it, but it was definitely brilliant.The acting is good. You can definitely see Jesse falling in love. The brother is funny but also provides good support for Jesse. The story is good clean fun.

if your going to watch this movie and only pay half attention, like i kind of did, at the end your going to be a bit confused.while watching the movie im thinking that alyssa milano (jessie) is actually dating two people, when in fact shes really not. the character troy is simply the character in ethans book that becomes published in the end of the movie. so the whole time im sitting here thinking "man this is pretty messed up, this chick is dating two guys at the same time, in which there relationships are becoming pretty serious, and thats just not cool to cheat like that" i had to come to this site and read the user reviews to understand troy was simply a character in the book.all in all its a pretty cool twist on t he movie, but it had me thinking that this chick has serious issues. who knows maybe you'll pick up on it in the ending and im just dumb.

Rebecca (Alyssa Milano) lost her father when she was a youngster. Fortunately, her loving uncle (Beau Bridges) stepped in to help care for her and he's still looking out for her interests. Now a waitress in a cafe, Uncle stops in to encourage his stung-by-divorce niece to take a leap of faith and start dating again. She promises to try. Unbelievably, two men enter the cafe within 30 minutes, with requests for her phone number. One is Ethan (Christopher Gorham), a gifted writer who has just been told by his editor (Carol Kane) that his latest work will NOT be published. He is hurting and is contemplating a career change. Rebecca tries to cheer him up and does her job so well, that digits are exchanged. Not ten minutes later, another gentleman, Troy (Michael Landes), a rising ad writer, drops in for a carry-out order and ends up charmed by Becca, too, especially when she tells him how much she enjoys a certain ad he wrote. Again, Rebecca writes down her number. Over the course of the next few weeks, Becca's schedule is a whirlwind of dates and kisses. Ethan, poor as a church mouse, nevertheless takes her on picnics and hikes, even hustling Becca over to his sister's house. There, they all romp with Ethan's three active young nieces and nephews. Meanwhile, Troy entices Rebecca with fine dining, wine, and concerts. How ever will she choose between them? Also, to be honest, how can she string two men along, when its obvious both of them are getting very serious? This is a sweet film and an unusual story. Viewer, be prepared for a twisted ending that is satisfying but unexpected. Milano, very beautiful, is touching in the lead role while Landes, Gorham and the others do fine work, too. Romantic drama fans will also like the costumes, sets, script, photography and direction. Yes, the cover looks more like a romcom but, while there are funny moments, the story has a serious undertone. However, fans of romance should seek this one out before a new moon appears.

I was bored and found this movie, so decided to watch it with my girlfriend. The movie started feeling like a low budget movie, but who cares about that? I think that we should at least acknowledge producers and directors who are trying to become big. This producer made a fantastic low budget movie.The actors did fantastic and the movie was very clean. No nasty scenes, no cursing, nothing offensive. Such an inspiring movie with HUGE jaw-dropping twist at the end that will leave you shocked. Recommending this movie, to some friends. In my opinion, I think they did a very great job with this movie.
