A writer (Jillian Murray) for a magazine buys a house as a surprise for her family only to find the seller has also sold it to another man (Dean Geyer). If either of them leaves the property their forfeit their ownership and have the few days running up to Christmas to come up with a solution. They both bring in the families to help them but learn about themselves and discover a different Christmas. This could have become very bitchy but goes the other way and almost becomes a bit sickly sweet, but then it is a Christmas romance. There is good support from Leigh-Allyn Baker and Victoria Staley as her mother and sister.
