October Kiss

2015 · 84 min

A gentle, cozy seasonal romance that feels like a warm blanket, with low stakes and plenty of heart.

Overview: Poppy Summerall is hired near Halloween as a temporary nanny by Ryan Lawson, a widowed, work-obsessed executive.

Poppy and Ryan soon find they are drawn to each other. Could it become more than temporary?
