Upbeat,
Corning NY, TV weatherman Ted Cooper (Robert Buckley) loves Christmas and is
looking forward to returning home for the Christmas holidays to his hometown of
Lackawanna.
He
is planning to film promos while he’s home for the Gingerbread Invitational
fundraise as a favour to his older sister Kate (Meghan Heffern), which is a
very good cause, a new children's wing for the local hospital.
His
friends and colleagues don’t understand his liking for the holidays as in
recent years he has had a catalogue of personal disasters at Christmas.
Despite
hoping this year would be different he ends up in the ER on day one where he
meets his former high school crush, Dr. Hope Miller (Kimberley Sustad).
He
has further interactions with her after further mishaps which leads to them
going on a date, encouraged by his sister, his retired teacher Ruth (Barbara
Pollard) and Hope’s best friend Sydney (Reedan Elizabeth).
But
will their burgeoning romantic relationship survive them working so far apart
or should he accept the job he’s been offered in Buffalo which is closer.
But
is that too much of a risk for someone
he always thought was out of his league.
However
during the time she spends together she soon lets him know that she wasn't and
isn't.
