Plot
According to the synopsis, the story focuses on single mother Maggie O’Donnell, for whom Christmas has always been a family affair. But this year, her daughter Ellen is away with her father for the holidays and for the first time, Maggie is alone for Christmas. The situation changes when she quite literally crashes into Lucas Cavelli at a Christmas tree lot. After injuring him with her tree, he’s forced to cancel his ski trip to Aspen and stay in town over Christmas. Anxious to make amends, Maggie offers Lucas her guest house for him to recuperate.
While Maggie has spent her life taking care of others while never tending to her own needs, Lucas is an immensely successful architect who has reached the peak of his profession, only to realize that he is burnt out and lost his passion for the job he once loved. Over the course of the holiday, the two find comfort and healing in their new friendship — a growing bond that soon leads to romance. However, Maggie misunderstands Lucas’s intentions and thinks he’s been leading her on before leaving for his job back in the big city. But is that the case? Will their relationship end even before it gets a chance? To know the answers, you have to wait for a while.
