The Story of Us
Directed by Scott Smith
Produced by Front Street Pictures, Hallmark Media
A warmhearted Hallmark romance centered on small-town charm, rekindled love, and the fight to preserve community against corporate encroachment.
Small town bookstore owner Jamie Vaughn learns that hers and other struggling local businesses face closure by a powerful Portland property developer, led by architect and former flame Sawyer O'Dell. As Valentine's Day approaches and closure seems imminent, Jamie must not only hatch a heartfelt plan to save her beloved bookstore, but she must also sort out her past feelings for Sawyer.
