A Poet and a Photographer Search for 'A Lifelong Love' in New Hallmark Movie
As we transition from spring to summer movies on Hallmark Channel, the network has opted to showcase a movie that may have been missed by viewers in the past. A Lifelong Love starring When Calls the Heart's Andrea Brooks will have its Hallmark Channel debut this week. It previously premiered last year on Hallmark Mystery.
Here's everything we know about A Lifelong Love.
What is A Lifelong Love about?
After aspiring poet Annika (Andrea Brooks) and her ex-boyfriend Ryan (Patch May), a street photographer, have their respective book pitches rejected, they are given another, more captivating and financially viable task: document the voyage of Abe (Tom Young), Annika’s grandfather, as he attempts to find his old flame, Ruth Barlowe (Brenda Gorlick). With the search for Ruth underway, Annika finds it difficult to suspend her perfectionist tendencies and create accelerated/off-the-cuff poetry. And her inability to adapt puts both their publication prospect and her growing feelings for Ryan in jeopardy. With so much at stake, Annika must learn to embrace this new challenge, even if it means abandoning her old, comfortable habits.
