Big city girl comes home and runs into old flame that she once abandoned (but maybe not totally one-sided). Like so many Lifetime movies this year, storm Meghan strands her and she can't get where she needs to be for her fading career. Meanwhile she remembers what she loved about home. Almost all of this has been done dozens of times, if not over a hundred times.
So what makes this different. Not much beyond a few songs by Hilty. I can't say the personalities were that appealing. Laney starts out totally self-centered, a little rude, and almost mean at times. Her relationship with Robby has no spark and is frankly boring. I didn't really care about that, or about her career developments either.
Teryl Rothery put in her usual great supporting role.
I'm glad that this movie takes advantage of the people with good voices and gives us some Christmas music. I wish more Christmas movies would do it and that the ones that do a little would do more.
The movie ends with several minutes of professional quality singing performances including a Christmas song that I was not previously familiar with.
