Second chance at love is a trope I enjoy very much if it's well done. And I like Nikki DeLoach. She is one of my faves so my expectations were high. However they were not fulfilled.
Sam is going home to write an article. We have seen this trope literally a hundred times. I still wonder how they convince the bosses to give them so many days or even weeks. They must be the best bosses ever. Anyway her ex husband Luke is there working and helping her father, who is going to compete in this championship Samantha's family is hosting.
Wow, surprise surprise her father can't compete and she is going to take his place. We saw this coming the minute the title appeared. So, she has to spend time with her ex. The problem wasn't the chemistry, because it was there, but there weren't enough scenes to see it develop. I mean, these two were divorced and I found their relation too good to be true. In my opinion, it didn't "re-develop" very naturally. I understand they only have a limited time but it could have been done better.
I actually enjoyed more scenes between Sam and her father and them mending their broken relationship. It was cute to see them reconnect.
At the beginning I was SO sure that they were going to pair up Alex and Mathew (saw that a hundred times a well) but the closure of that little story surprised me. So kudos for that.
Anyway, I still enjoyed it due to the fact that Nikki was there but I didn't care much about the romance or the horses.
