Heart of the Holidays (2020)

Just weeks shy of Christmas, Samantha Wallace, a Wall Street prodigy, embarks on what she believes to be her dream journey with Castleton Investments. A realm where innovative start-ups are her playground, and she holds the freedom to shape their destinies. However, a shocking discovery on her first day prompts her to abandon her newfound career and reevaluate her relationship with her boyfriend, Will, whom she had anticipated proposing marriage. Leaving behind the towering skyscrapers of New York City, Samantha, or Sam as she's affectionately known, decides to retreat to her quaint hometown, Crawleigh, nestled in the heart of western New York. A return journey that's not just her first since her ambitious move to the city eight years ago with dreams of changing the world, but marks her first Christmas home since then. Her decision to stay away all these years was largely influenced by the fear of facing her high school sweetheart, Noah Fitzpatrick, who now owns a local coffee shop and bakery, their parting having left a bitter taste. Stepping back into the familiar, yet long-avoided, embrace of Crawleigh, she is inevitably drawn to Noah. The town's well-meaning residents, including her widowed mother Tammy and the affable couple, Bob and Val, are convinced that Sam and Noah were destined to be together. Their reunion is initially tense, but the tension betrays a lingering affection, and as they rally the townsfolk to support the food bank for Christmas, Sam begins to see Crawleigh in a new light, far from the town she once was eager to escape. However, the blossoming romance and the rediscovery of her humanitarian spirit are jeopardized by Will's unexpected arrival and an offer from him that tempts her back to her old life in NYC. As Christmas draws near, Sam finds herself at a crossroads, torn between the allure of her old dreams and the heartwarming charm of her hometown, and the potential of rekindling an old flame. The plot of Heart of the Holidays dances around choices, second chances, and the true spirit of Christmas, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a story that is as heartwarming as the holiday season itself.
