When it comes to romance, Hallmark never disappoints. The network has readied a spate of movies as part of its annual 'Summer Nights' programming event, of which 'Sweet Pecan Summer' is one. The premise is about old flames reconnecting and how they find it difficult selling a pecan farm. Hopefully, it won't be as simple as it sounds right now. The network has a way of adding twists to simple narratives. 

Before the film drops, here are a few movie titles you could binge on the side: 'The Baker's Son', 'Her Pen Pal', 'Sand Dollar Cove' and 'You Had Me At Aloha'.
