PLOT:

If you think the competitive world of fashion is tough, nothing is as intimidating as meeting the fiance's family for the first time. Budding designer Alicia Crosby (Kayla Ewell, "The Vampire Diaries") must earn the affections of a new family and she must do so under the pressures of their annual extravaganza, the "Randall Reunion Races," a Hallmark Channel Original Movie which began production and is slated to have its world premiere in 2011. Two-time Emmy nominee Roma Downey ("Touched by an Angel") and television legend and five-time Emmy nominee Marion Ross ("Happy Days," "Brooklyn Bridge") are among the Randall Reunion competitors.

Alicia Crosby (Ewell) is a hugely successful children's fashion designer based in Los Angeles. Her personal life is equally successful as Alicia suspects her boyfriend Will Randall (Thad Luckinbill, "The Young and the Restless") is going to pop the question any day now. But first, Alicia must survive meeting Will's family, which means getting down and dirty in their family's annual "Reunion Races" where she is up against everyone from Will's mom, Barb (Downey), to seemingly sweet Grandma Dorie (Ross), to even Will's ex-girlfriend, Kris (McKenna Jones, "The Bold and the Beautiful").

It is no surprise to anyone, Alicia included, that she is not up to athletic challenges. Almost out of patience, even going as far as to fake an injury to avoid the games, Alicia at last sees a glimmer of hope and a way to merge her fashion sense with some outdoors know-how. Just as the stopwatch ceases to tick, she might not only win the races, but finally, a place in the hearts of her soon-to-be family members.
