Ooooh... these all sound really great! I just adore Jen Lilley in everything... so her movie, "A Paris Romance," makes me very excited! Plus, I've always loved Leah Renee since "Love by the Book," and Chris McNally has been a favorite since "Rocky Mountain Christmas" and even more so since this new season of "When Calls the Heart," so I can't wait to see these two paired together!

Also, there seems to be a lot of new names in the mix - so... that should be interesting!

I would love to know - which NEW Hallmark movie or movies are YOU most looking forward to in May? Please share in comments below!

Have a Wonderful, Sunshiny Day!

While doing an appraisal, antiques dealer Morgan discovers love letters hidden in Emma’s mother’s desk, and they’re signed with initials that aren’t her father’s. In researching the mystery man, and while enjoying holiday festivities, Emma and Morgan fall in love. But when Emma’s ex arrives, Morgan backs off. Then when he shows up at a gala with another woman, Emma is heartbroken. Misunderstandings abound during Christmas on Honeysuckle Lane, and the mystery of the love letters still must be solved.

As Lisa charms a local contractor named Kevin into working with her, the pair find themselves facing one surprise after another as they restore the store to its former glory. When the staff at the Kringle Kitchen temporarily accept the store’s beloved ‘Mailbox to Santa’ for safekeeping, the townspeople find and rally around a mysterious 25-year-old letter that never made it to the North Pole.
