the first thing i must say be that i have not read the book so i can only go by what i saw on the small screen and at this point a further introduction be necessary . love evangeline appear to be one of twelve mill and boon or shilloute romance novel that have be bring to the small screen . i have see 10 and these be represent another woman and a change of place and the awakening and broken lullaby and hard to forget and the wait game and this matter of marriage and diamond girl and recipe for revenge and love evangeline . so to get the best out of these movie or to see the bad you must view them in the context of this be a romance novel bring to the screen . it be a pity if these movie do not follow the course of the original book but still view it a a mill and boon bring to film nonetheless . so how do love evangeline rate . well i like it . out of the ten that i have watch i would put it at position 5 and to explain this i will run down what be need to bring a mill and boon or shilloutte romance to film . first of all the couple must look the part the man must be strong and handsome and the woman beautiful and their must be the chemistry . the background story must not overshadow the romance so to overcome this our couple should be see together in 70 % of the film . the mill and boon man must have integrity . for example in broken lullaby there be a see where our heroine be shoot at now she be understandably upset and a a result get close to our mill and boon man and one thing lead to another if you get my drift . the mill and boon man should have check with the lady and make sure it be okay to proceed but in this case he just get down to business . point lose . another thing that be essential for a mill and boon man be that if he be go to get into a fight he should win . in broken lullaby and love evangeline both mill and boon men get into fight and lose . finally there must be a marriage resolution at the end of the film . love evangeline do not have the marriage resolution and i would not have peg our hero a a typical mill and boon man but the film do keep me go because of the competency of the actor and a none too taxing storyline so i do like it . now if you be wonder what my top five film be i shall tell you . 5th loving evangeline . 4th recipe for revenge . 3rd another woman . 2nd the awakening and my number one mill and boon film be diamond girl . i manage to get nine of these film via ebay at extremely good bargain basement price so you could check out all ten and even get the one that i have not see yet and these be treacherous beauty and at the midnight hour .
