Brooke Burns (“Melrose Place”) stars as a bodyguard who must go undercover to protect, a tycoon’s daughter from death threats before her big day in “Undercover Bridesmaid,” a Hallmark Channel Original Movie World Premiere, Sunday, April 15 (8p.m. ET/PT, 7C). Joining Burns are Gregory Harrison (“One Tree Hill”), Nicole Paggi, (“Hope & Faith”) and Justin Baldoni (“The Bold and the Beautiful”).

Tanya Harsin (Burns) is miserable at her latest job defending Daisy (Paggi) the daughter of Thompson, a Texas mogul (Harrison). Tanya has been hired to protect Daisy who has been receiving death threats weeks before her wedding. Harsin struggles to blend in with the bubbly, girly bridesmaids; this is not a typical assignment. Between the aunt who is depleting the family scholarship fund, the playboy cousin with an inheritance at stake, a very angry business partner, and the groom with a wandering eye – almost everyone at the wedding is a legitimate suspect, and this undercover bridesmaid must not lose control of her mission. Sure enough, Tanya finds herself embroiled with the groom’s questionable, yet charming best friend Jake (Baldoni) and wanders off with him when a shooting takes place. Soon, everything falls apart – Thompson blames Tanya for putting his daughter in peril, Jake discovers her real identity and Daisy overhears Tanya mention the groom’s unquestionable behavior to her father. The disastrous assignment leads Tanya to find a different perspective on life and love, and before long, all falls into place.

“Undercover Bridesmaid” is a Larry Levinson Production. Larry Levinson is executive producer and Randy Pope is co-executive producer. Lincoln Lageson is producer. Matthew Diamond directed from a script by Gregg Rossen and Brian Sawyer.

The next episode of Jersey Shore airs on Thursday, just two days after Valentine’s Day. So, what do the girls have planned for the big romantic holiday?

“I will be spending Valentine’s day with my boyfriend,” Deena said. “This is the first Valentine’s Day I have a Valentine. We will probably come in to the city and do dinner.”

Sammi, meanwhile, says he’s going the friends route.

“I am just going to be hanging out with girlfriends this Valentine’s Day,” she said.
