No way that was his voice....(and other questions)

So I've been watching the show and just skipped ahead to the season 1 finale to see the kiss I heard about. When Jack is talking and says "You're the one, the only one" the voice was TOTALLY different. Lower, less gravelly, didn't even match his lips! What gives? they couldn't get the actor to just rerecord the line?

I also have questions about the Book/Movie/TV show

I have not read the book or seen the movie, so I'm confused when reading synopses. Book/Movie were totally different characters, right? Movie has Maggie Grace listed as "Aunt Elizabeth" and a totally different mountie. Does this TV show take into account the movie at all? Or is it just totally different? What happened in the book/movie or where can I read/watch it?

I noticed that line sounded different as well. I'm thinking he recorded that line in studio and they played it over whatever it was he said when they filmed. Either they wanted to change the line or maybe Daniel sounded too Aussie when he spoke it to begin with.

I think read the books years ago, but I have seen the TV movie on DVD more recently. The TV movie has two Elizabeths, two Mounties, and are set in 2 different eras. I think the movie starts off with Poppy Drayton's 'Elizabeth Thatcher' in the 1910s finding her aunt 'Elizabeth Thatcher's' diary from the 1880s,where she writes about being a teacher in a prairie school in the Canadian West. The movie then flip flops between 1880s 'Elizabeth', played by Maggie Grace, and her relationship with a Mountie/farmer named 'Wynn, played by Stephen Amell, and 1910s 'Elizabeth' & her relationship with a Mountie named 'Edward', played by Daniel Sharman.

I believe the 20th century/1910s 'Elizabeth Thatcher' from this WCTH movie is supposed to be the same character as the 'Elizabeth Thatcher' from the WCTH TV show now, even though they're entirely different actors & the TV show writers changed things/names/etc. to put their own spin on things.
