When her father fell ill, divorcee Allison Brentley (Rachel Boston) and her adolescent daughter Olivia (Kate Moyer) moved back to her hometown of White Pines, Tennessee, nestled in the Smoky Mountains, and following his death, took over running the struggling family business, Rocky Top Bakery, working alongside her mother, Martha (Patricia Richardson).
One day Olivia hears her mother and Grandmother talking about their
dire finances, so as her Christmas wish from Santa, she asks for more people to
come to the bakery to buy what she considers to be the best cookies in the
world and bring their money worries to an end.
Olivia thinks that part of her wish has come true when a kindly,
motherly woman (Caroline Rhea) and her husband (Tom Young) visit the shop one
day and after trying samples of the cookies they place an extremely large order
for a Christmas party.
The shop is also visited by property developer Matthew Gilbert (Andrew
W. Walker) and his assistant Rebecca Rowe (Stephanie Moroz) who make a very
generous offer for the bakery as they want to build a ski resort, but Allison
shows them the door.
Matthew is persistent though and despite herself she starts to get
close to him, but due to the feeling her ex-husband had abandoned her and
Olivia, Allison has sworn off dating, partly because she didn’t want to put
Olivia in that position again of feeling unwanted.
Nonetheless Christmas magic will have its way assisted by a snowstorm
and Madame and Monsieur Claus.
