At a Bourbon Street lounge in New Orleans, in the run up to Christmas, Lindsey Scott (Marla Sokoloff) and Wes Bailey (Rob Mayes) are a reluctant duelling pianos/singing act, that reluctance being due to them being complete opposites.
Lindsey
is classically trained and structured whereas Wes is more relaxed, and more
Jazz oriented.
Their
last gig of the year is cancelled at the last minute and as the money from that
show was going to fund her flight home for Christmas, she is left deflated.
Her
sister Allie (Whitney Palmer) is almost due with her first baby so her need to
get home promptly was acute Wes on the other hand needed to get home to see his
sick mother before she passed.
In
passing conversation, it transpired that they were both from small hometowns
just outside of Akron, so he suggests that they drive the fifteen-hour straight
through journey together and she reluctantly agrees.
On
the road trip, they meet one obstacle after another, detours, breakdowns,
adverse weather, all of which threatened to prevent them from reaching their
respective homes in time for Christmas.
But
as a result, they have to spend more time together than they expected, and in
the process, they truly to get to know and understand each other.
And
somewhere along the way they fell in love.
