Featured reviews
The film was sweet, and really made us have that warm-and-cozy feeling that most modern Christmas films never seem to have. This was special, and we enjoyed it tremendously, even if it's formulaic for this type of movie. It worked on every level, and all of the cast were good.
I'd certainly recommend it, if you're a hardcore fan of Christmas stuff like we are!
May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you, and merry Christmas!
These Hallmark movies all have a familiar theme, two very attractive people who happen to be single for different reasons meet, there is mild friction at first, but as they get to know each other find they are in fact a perfect couple.
Leah Renee is 30-ish Claire Benson, figure skater who aspires to her country's championship in a few weeks but she has an injury. She is sent to a clinic at a resort in the mountains to see a specialist and recover properly.
Her limo stranded in the new snowfall she is given a lift by 35-ish Niall Matter as local Luke, driving his snowmobile. They don't know anything about each other but he is a retired multiple MVP professional hockey players so he probably owns the resort and everything near it.
It also happens that Luke has a young daughter, aspiring figure skater, who recognizes Claire, so there is that additional opportunity for bonding.
Overall a very pleasant movie with attractive characters and a bit of comedy from situations Claire's coach gets into when he visits her in the mountains.

- TriviaThis was filmed in the Canadian Okanagan, Manning Park, and Maple Ridge BC.
- GoofsAt the beginning of the film, the announcer identifies Claire's final jump that she ends up missing as a triple axel. Axel jumps have a forward entry. Claire is rotating around to create momentum and she is facing backwards when she takes off for the jump. It looks like she's doing either a toe-loop or lutz jump (can't see her feet to be sure).
