Lacey Quinn doesn't believe in the legend of the Christmas cottage, which is said to bring true love to anyone who stays there, but she's happy to decorate it for her best friend's Christmas Eve wedding. When she finds herself stuck together with her former flame, Ean Callahan, while a blizzard rages outside, she begins to see the sharp contrast between Ean's family values and her current boyfriend Roger's dedication to his career. She's always been a workaholic right alongside Roger, but is the magic of the Christmas cottage trying to show her another path? This movie is based on the 2015 book The Christmas Cottage by Samantha Chase.
