'Sweet As Maple Syrup' (2021).


Pretty blonde Brooke Nevin's glisters in this enjoyably sappy Rom com about passionate Maple Syrup producer (Nevins) who reluctantly hires handsome 'forensic tree expert' Dr. Derek (Carlo Marks) in order to increase her sticky yield of nature's yummiest nectar. As expected, the rocky road to gloopy romance reinforces the indomitable Hallmark coda of 'opposites ALWAYS attract'. Beloved family businesses will be saved, and everything tastes better with maple syrup, even small town sentimental schmaltz like 'Sweet as Maple Syrup. As an aside, I admire how open the professor is about his micro sprinkler, the perfect tool for shallow drilling!
