Product Description

Like mother, like daughter? When it comes to romance, single mom Jess Gradwell and her 15-year-old daughter Sara may have a lot more in common than they think. Intrigued by a hunky heart surgeon, Jess falls hard into a possibly unwise affair. At the same time, Sara is discovering her own longings and perhaps acting unwisely about a boy at school. Emotions are on edge in the Gradwell household. Jess and Sara clash over sexuality and morality. Then Jess makes a decision that will change both of them forever.

4.0 out of 5 stars Is turnabout fair play?, February 4, 2005

By	ACJ "andrucharlz" (Gladstone, MI, USA) - See all my reviews

Usually, in stories like this, a teenage girl gets careless, becomes pregnant, and has to hide it from her mother. But here, it's the mother who gets careless, becomes pregnant, and has to hide it from her daughter! The aforementioned (single) mother has been discouraging her teenage daughter from becoming sexually active, while carrying on a wild, secret affair with a married man. When she becomes pregnant and her lover abandons her, she has to face her own hypocrisy. This film is a cut above most made-for-Lifetime-TV movies, thanks largely to Gail O'Grady's performance as the mother - she's always luminous and likable, even when some might question her behavior. Credit must also go to Danielle Panabaker as the daughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lifetime Movie, December 28, 2007

By	Tera Hishon (Chino Hills, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is one of my favorite all-time "Lifetime" movies. Grant Show is HOT, HOT, HOT! My only complaint is that they haven't come out with the sequel on DVD yet, but I have it saved on my DVR while I wait for it. Gail O'Grady is a good actress also, and you can feel the chemisty between the two of them in this movie. This is one movie that I never get tired of! Thanks Grant! :)
