No Time Like Christmas (2019)

Emma Potter, a fiercely dedicated copywriter at Los Angeles' renowned Attica Advertising, finds herself standing on the precipice of her career's biggest assignment yet - designing a captivating campaign for Frost Watches' new Christmas timepiece, all in just sixteen days. Despite the looming deadline, Emma is irresistibly drawn back to her quaint Vermont hometown for Christmas, where destiny awaits her in the form of a worn-out antique store. As she steps into the store, searching for inspiration, she stumbles upon an engraved pocket watch, a relic from her past that once belonged to her college love, Fletcher Conroy. The sight of the watch is a poignant reminder of their shared history - of Fletcher's plays where she served as musical director, and of their eventual parting as they pursued their distinct professional paths, with Fletcher now a reputable theater playwright and director in London. Emma's sister, Bronwyn, views the discovery of the watch as more than mere coincidence, seeing it as a sign to rekindle the lost romance. Playing the discreet Cupid, Bronwyn orchestrates a reunion by sending Emma to the same bed and breakfast in Vermont where Fletcher is staying, just a week before Christmas. Here, Emma not only finds Fletcher, but also meets his lively daughter, adding a new dimension to her unexpected journey. With the Vermont Christmas Festival and its associated Christmas Eve play at stake for the last time, Emma and Fletcher find themselves working together to save the local theater. Amidst the flurry of preparations, they grapple with their resurgent feelings, while the ghost of past misunderstandings and Emma's unresolved fears threaten to shadow their reunion. Guided by the wisdom of Fletcher's mother, Katherine, and the ever-insightful Bronwyn, Emma is poised to confront her apprehensions and embrace the magic of Christmas, which has taken on a human form in her life. In this heartwarming tale of rediscovered love, professional ambition, and the enduring spirit of Christmas, Emma learns that sometimes, the greatest inspiration lies in embracing one's past and that there truly is no time like Christmas.
