Roma Downey from Touched By An Angel teams up with Eric McCormack from Will & Grace star in this cute romantic film about a single mother(Downey)who has a little girl named Zoey who spots a mysterious house that belongs to Kathleen(Downey's)character's boss Sam (played by Eric McCormack)who is expecting a visitor(played by Princess Diaires Hector Elizondo) who thinks that Sam is a married father. So he asks Kathleen and Zoey to pretend to be his wife and daughter for 2 weeks in order for the deal to work. But with romance on the cards can Kathleen and Sam ever get together?I thought it was a nice film especially the little child actress as Zoey she was adorable. The romance between McCormack and Downey was cute and the film itself is very heartwarming. Overall if you loved While You were Sleeping,The Proposal,Maid In Manhattan than you will enjoy this film. B+

BORROWED HEARTS (1997) (TV) is extremely similar to SECOND HONEYMOON (2001) (TV). Both have Roma Downey as the leading lady. Both have a mysterious Mexican man (Antonio in SECOND, Javier Del Campo in BORROWED), who is much more than he seems, playing the busy matchmaker. Both try to tell a heartwarming light comic/romantic "mature boy gets mature girl" tale.There are some differences. BORROWED HEARTS takes place in the cold north during winter/Christmas. SECOND HONEYMOON takes place in the warm tropics.SECOND HONEYMOON, unfortunately, tones down the charm, and plays up the conflict and comedy. Too bad. Tim Matheson and Roma Downey might have caught fire given enough music and romance. BORROWED HEARTS is a much more solid production. If in the mood for cute light romance, BORROWED HEARTS is the better of the two.

The one reason I had for watching this film was Eric McCormack. In this film he is GORGEOUS!!!!!Unfortunately the plot is so disgustingly sweet, and the little girl so disgustingly irksome, that whatever Eric McCormack contributes to it is lost :(
