A heartwarming holiday romance built on the collision of two characters' values, centered on family, second chances, and the magic of Christmas tradition.

Wellness expert, Juliet, pitches Christmas memory candles to her boss in hopes of earning a promotion and enlists the help of boutique candle store owner, Tom, to create new candle scents. Tom, who thinks the wellness industry is a scam, refuses at first but agrees when he realizes the money will help make his daughter’s Christmas wish come true.
