Spend the Holidays Like a Nostalgic Christmas

By  | 

Brooke D’Orsay (Royal Pains and Christmas in Love) stars as Anne Garrison whose annual holiday visit to the small town in Maine where she grew up is somewhat bittersweet this year. With her dad set to sell his toy store and retire from his wood-carving career, and the town’s lumber mill up for sale, this will probably be her last Christmas there.

But when Anne is drafted and paired with handsome local widower Keith McClain (Trevor Donovan from 90210 and Love, Fall & Order) to co-chair the town’s Christmas celebration, she begins to question what she really wants in life.

Soon, Anne becomes torn between returning to her fast-paced career in New York and remaining in the small town to take over her dad’s hand-carved wooden toy business and seeing where a burgeoning romance with Keith might lead.

Nostalgic Christmas debuts tonight (October 31) at 9/8c on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries.
