"love begins" Saturday on Hallmark

I was given the opportunity to watch a full-length screener of the upcoming Hallmark Channel Original movie, "Love Begins", which airs this Saturday, September 17th.

"Love Begins" serves as the first of two new prequels to award-winning author Janette Oke’s book series, "Love Comes Softly" and iconic hero Clark Davis. The movie stars Wes Brown, Julie Mond, Nancy McKeon and Jere Burns.

Wes Brown is Clark Davis. His dreams of seeing the world are put into jeopardy after he and a friend start a fight which damages a local cafe. Through a plea deal with the Sheriff (Jere Burns) and café owner Millie (Nancy McKeon), Clark works off his sentence as a farmhand for the Barlow sisters, Ellen (Julie Mond) and Cassie (Abigail Mavity).

Before watching this movie, I was unfamiliar with the "Love comes softly" series. It was Nancy McKeon's participation that caught my initial interest. Even though she didn't have a large role, I still enjoyed the rest of the cast. Wes Brown's character, Clark Davis, reminded me of a cross between Dermot Mulroney & James LeGros' characters in "Bad Girls". After getting the chance to watch this, I realized that I need to go back and check out the rest of this series to see what I've missed.

"Love Begins" airs Saturday, September 17th on Hallmark Channel. Brown and Mond also star in the second prequel, "Love’s Everlasting Courage", which will air on Saturday, October 1st.
