THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – KAREN KINGSBURY'S MAGGIE'S CHRISTMAS MIRACLE (2017)
Lawyer Maggie (Jill Wagner), is an
overprotective single mom and has to maintain the balance between her career
and her son, Jordan (Lauren Guci), but he is falling behind at school.
The head teacher suggests a tutor named Casey
(Luke Macfarlane) to help him catch up, Maggie is reluctant but is persuaded by
her much more relaxed mother (Laura Soltis) to at least meet with him.
Eventually she agrees and when Jordan meets

So will the three of them find the happiness
and sense of family they are looking for in this delightful Christmas Story?
