Adrain (Polly Draper) is a woman who gets pregnant. But her husband never wanted any kids so he leaves her. Being alone and dealing with an oncoming divorce she meets Bill (John Ritter) who is there for her to help through this horrible time. Bill falls in love with her but Adrain still hopes that her husband will return when she gave birth to their child. If he does and what will happen to Bill I won't tell here. Watch for yourself and enjoy "Heartbeat". And by the way, you'll LOVE the cast !

Love is lost and then found in an unexpected place in this movie. I have loved this Danielle Steel movie from the first time I saw it. John Ritter and Polly Draper are exceptional in this story. As a happily married career women whose husband walks out after she refuses to abort their baby, Polly Draper plays the character of Adrienne just right, not to weepy but strong enough to stand on her own decision and go on with life. John Ritter's character comes into her life and as the loving father of two sons from a previous marriage he knows exactly how to win her over and become the husband she deserves and the father her baby needs.

This movie is a good example of what life and love is all about,don't miss this one. Was taken from a book by Danille Steele.

I watched this movie when I was in my teens and I enjoyed it. The quality of the movie is great.

HI, THIS REVIEW IS FOR THOMAS OR FOR ANYONE ELSE IN THIS CONFUSING SITUATION. WHAT I UNDERSTAND IS THERE IS OR WAS A SHOW IN THE UK CALLED HEARTBEAT, CAUSING SOME CONFUSION WITH VIEWERS WHO THOUGHT WHEN THEY BOUGHT THIS MOVIE, THEY WERE GETTING THE DAILY SHOW THAT IS SHOWN IN THE UK. "HEARTBEAT" STARRING JOHN RITTER AND POLLY DRAPER WAS RELEASED IN THE EARLY 90'S, BASED ON A NOVEL WRITTEN BY DANIELLE STEEL, WITH THE SAME TITLE. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT SINCE THIS MOVIE IS ADVERTISED SPECIFICALLY AS DANIELLE STEEL'S HEARTBEAT, THAT SHOULD HAVE ELIMINATED ANY CONFUSION UP FRONT. TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE DANIELLE STEEL DOESN'T HAVE A DAILY SERIES BASED ON ANY OF HER NOVELS. I DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT ALL OF HER WORKINGS, BUT SO FAR I'VE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT THAT. I'M A BIG FAN OF HERS, HOWEVER I DON'T LIKE ALL OF HER BOOKS OR MOVIES, THOUGH I DID/DO ENJOY HEARTBEAT, WHAT THE SELLERS ARE ASKING FOR IS RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE. SUPPLY AND DEMAND I SUPPOSE.

I have twice notified Amazon that the picture included with this item is wrong - the response: No Change - stating nothing wrong - But the picture is of an UK actor named Nick Berry and it is from the British TV series Heartbeat which started in 1992. Now the actors listed for this product include John Ritter. John Ritter was never on the UK show - He may have made a movie or US TV show called Heartbeat, but to include a picture from a different show is misleading. I was hoping to find DVD's of the UK show - but at present I do not know exactly what they are selling or trying to sell.

If the seller reads this they need to clarify what it is they are trying to sell. And, I know what I am talking about - I watch this show, in England, daily. Nick Berry (pictured) played PC Nick Rowan from 1992 - 1998. Please make correction ASAP.

This is a must have for any Danielle Steele fan. This man, who is divorced, and has shared custody of the kids meets this woman, who is newly divorced (and discovers she's pregnant with her first husband) start out as neighbors, then friends and wind up together.

HeartBeat, is a True Love Story, I got my sister hooked on it, and now that John Ritter is gone, he will live in "Our Hearts" forever

I just liked this touching story right from the start! John Ritter and Polly Draper displayed such a warm chemistry and you just rooted for them to find their way to eachother despite the many hurdles they faced. Eventhough I've seen this movie several times over the years, I would watch it everytime it would air on Lifetime. It's just the kind of movie you could kick back, relax and shed a few tears of happiness at the end!!! I'm so glad this movie has been released on dvd because it's another body of work I can collect on the late John Ritter, who I still miss very much.

All of Danielle Steel Movies are wonderful. I like them all and can not
pick a favorite. Each one has strong women. I like that about Her stories. Women are simetimes portrayed as week, Ms. Steels books make
women winners.
