Storyline:
When Sarah, a lonely and deeply troubled woman, inadvertently enters an AA meeting, she is embraced by its members who believe that she too is an alcoholic. What the meeting is all about, she doesn't know... but her motive for going to the community center is to meet facetoface with Charlie, one of the members who she has seen regularly standing in front of the center adjacent to her window just before what she supposes is some sort of Bible study. She likes the way Charlie moves and the way he smiles. As fate would have it, Sarah and Charlie begin to fall in love. The big question is: Will her continuing attendance at the meeting and her pretense of being an alcoholic weave itself into an entangling web? Will she muster up the courage to tell him, "My name is Sarah, and I'm not an alcoholic," knowing that she may lose him as a result?

Reviews:
"I watched the movie tonight and truly loved it. So much so, that when it was over, I looked to see who the author was so I could tell her how much I enjoyed the movie. It was so different, yet so real, and so beautiful. Thank you Julie Brazier for writing this story and whoever made it into a movie for television, thank you too. Also the actors did a wonderful job. The only face I recognized was "Sarah"...but all did an excellent job, including the small parts. As I wrote that sentence I recalled something I was told when I was in my 1st play. There are no small parts, only small actors. This movie had a host of wonderful actors doing a marvelous job portraying a story that really reached out to the viewer. I just wanted to say thanks again. I went on the internet to see if she had written any other movies or maybe a book. I found this site, so I hope word gets to her to let her know how much I enjoyed her movie." Written by deblynne8 on IMDb.

"Really heartwarming, charming, and sweet. This movie restored my faith in Lifetime Movie Network. All the actors are the kind of talented where I didn't even notice how good they were (until I read a previous poster's comment afterward) because they just WERE their characters. And all the characters are rounded and not static. They change and go through problems, feelings, conflicts, etc. It's really easy to watch and get absorbed in because so much of Sarah (and others) is revealed slowly and progressively. You witness the full growth and evolution of her romantic relationship and personal journey. The scenic views of wherever (Vancouver is where it's filmed?) really add to the setting and ambiance, also. Props to Sarah for going to the pound for a dog instead of a breeder (this is in the first 10 minutes or so of the movie). I don't know whether men would like it as much as women, but then again, it did air on Lifetime Movie Network." Written by melaniekiser1 on IMDb.

"This is a charming movie. Jennifer Beals, as always, is beautiful and talented. The sound of her voice is enchanting and her laugh is delightful." Written by miralew87632 on IMDb.
