Joy & Hope (2020)

In the heart of upstate New York, the tranquil Two Sisters Ranch is managed by widower Frank McGregor, his daughters, Joy and Hope, and a steadfast crew of ranch hands, including the ever-dependable Gabe Corsetti. Gabe harbors a quiet affection for the pragmatic sister, an affection that goes unnoticed amidst the daily hustle of ranch life. Amidst this rustic simplicity, a stranger arrives. Ethan Dulane, a successful romance author from the bustling cityscape of Manhattan, is grappling with a formidable adversary: writer's block. His ninth novel under contract remains unwritten, prompting his agent to book an unplanned holiday away from the city's distractions, hoping the serene ranch environment will spark inspiration. Despite his initial lukewarm interest in equine life, Ethan's expert eye for relationships and his curiosity in the ranch's close-knit community stirs something within him. As he immerses himself in the rhythm of the ranch, he discovers the magic of Christmas as celebrated on the Two Sisters Ranch, a magic that is both heartfelt and transformative. The unfolding interactions and experiences at the ranch serve as the muse he desperately needs, inspiring not only his next novel but also awakening the ranch folks to opportunities they've overlooked for years. 'Joy & Hope' is a charming journey of inspiration and newfound perspectives, encapsulating the beauty of rural life and the power of community spirit.
