I don’t remember when I first noticed Matt Hamilton, but I’m sure it was a Hallmark movie that brought him to my attention.

Last year, I had the supreme honor of becoming acquainted with one of the loveliest ladies in the world (and I don’t say that glibly). Making authentic connections with women is a skill I have had to acquire over the course of my life, but women like Lindsay Maxwell make my task very easy. From the first moment Lindsay and […]
