DeleteI never know what to think of Nicholas Sparks stories, so I'll wait to see the reviews. But I love the look of Hot Pursuit.
ReplyDeletehis movies are always nice for weekend watching :)

ReplyDeletedoes he hate Manganiello now that they're engaged?
DeleteI love Hot Pursuit. These 2 actresses are my favorite so I can't wait. :)
ReplyDeleteshould be a fun one
DeleteThat cop outfit thingie doesn't become my beloved Reese...
