PLOT:
Storyline via Lifetime: It’s Jolie’s (Hilarie Burton) first time going back home to Louisiana since her devastating break up with Foster (Hunter Burke). Seeing him is inevitable as their parents run the town’s annual Christmas Market together, but when she discovers Foster is bringing home a new girlfriend, Jolie cannot bear the thought of going home alone and seeing them together. Her best friend Naomi (Danneel Ackles) suggests that Jolie bring her flaky brother, Jack (Robert Buckley), home for Christmas as he has no plans this year. Jolie, a professional web designer, is hesitant; so, Naomi, a lawyer, creates a Christmas contract to give them both something they want—a buffer for those awkward moments around Jolie’s ex and a website to help sell Jack’s upcoming novel. Unbeknownst to them, the Christmas contract proves to be so much more than what they signed up for.

The development of Jolie and Jack`s romance was organic,well written and characters believably played by Hilarie Burton and Robert Buckley and the supporting cast and location also added great ambience to this very cute move! Loved it and so far my fave of the season ..well done Lifetime :>
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your review, ashipper! Can't wait to see this one! :)
DeleteThis was a good one for sure! I loved the story line and the chemistry between the two leads. Hilarie Burton was amazing as always. Fun to watch and very well written!
ReplyDeleteWatched this movie last night for the first time. I'm more of a Hallmark girl than Lifetime, but this has been my favorite Christmas movie of the year so far!! Even my teenage son, who rolls his eyes every time he sees me watching a romantic Christmas movie, loved it!
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you so much for sharing your take on this movie, too! I've been hearing such good feedback on it. Now I really can't wait to see it! :)
