After a night out, Maddie encourages her sister Faith to put a wish in the box — a wish to experience true love for the very first time. The sisters are surprised when she meets a very handsome man, Andrew, who is an eligible bachelor. At first, Faith thinks that her Christmas wish has come true, but with time, and the closing in of Christmas, she beings to wonder if Andrew is really the one for her. But the universe is leading her to her best friend Wyatt! So who is it going to be? Andrew or Wyatt? Find out.
