Rachael Jones (Sarah Lancashire) is thirty something school teacher who had survived a battle with cancer. Her best friend Nina, also a colleague is the only one who knows her secret, that the cancer is back. At a school trip Rahael tells to Nina on a boat that Jesus died at thirty-three so it is not to bad if she dies also after she turns thirty three. The only thing is that she has not found her one and true love. Syddenly a young and attractive artists Donal(Ciaran McMenamin) enters her life. He is twenty-seven and Rachael is hesitating to call him to her birthday party which Nina planed for her because of age difference. But eventually she does. At a party her sister Tracy, a very unhappy married woman finds out the truth that Rachaels cancer is back, and accuses Rachael that she is selfish for keeping it a secret, and Rachael leaves party alone. Then when everything seems lost she finds her way back to Donal's heart where she realized she had never left. I saw this film on Hallmark channel years ago and found it to be worth seeing.The movie was very good. The birthday party which could have been the climax for the movie was ruined by her sisters revelation, but everything apart from that was very likable. The ending was unexpected. Rachael ending up at Donals house and asking him will he spend the rest of her days with her,which he accepts. I specially liked the sentence when she says can we push the fast forward button, and then she kisses him.
