They list this under "Goofs" but it isn't... If Sharon grew up in this town, she would know that she has to go to his law office for the meeting... Duh.....
When Sharon and Sam make an appointment to meet for the first time, they mention a time but not a locale before they part company.

I'm glad this movie wasn't afraid to acknowledge the sadness that many people feel at Christmas because of the loss of loved ones. This movie shows us that celebrating those loved ones with traditions and talking about pur love for them and the sadness that can linger is as important a part of Christmas as any other element of everyone's favorite holiday.
In essence, I love it for few details: the Christmas ornaments, the portrait of grandmother Vera and her notebooks, for Heidi Fielek, Zach Tinker,John B. Lowe and BJ Harrison, for the young Michaela Russell and for the silhouette of Misses Taylor. The recipe is familiar, the cook is far to be surprising and the dish not extraordinary. But the spices , from cinnamon cookies to the little turtle doves from the box from basement of Taylors are just beautiful. So, I admitt, just I love it.
Nikki deLoach and Michael Rady make a nice TV couple as they have in other Hallmark movies. So their romance is believable. But the story isn't about very much. She moves back to settle her grandma's stuff and falls for a widower with a kid. Some fussing about the kid. Totally predictable.
I know just by looking in to Michael Rady's eyes that he is the nicest, kindest, most lovely guy. They are just so warm and his smile is so genuine. He makes watching any of the festive made for TV films that he's in, easily watchable. You can't wait to see him fall in love and be happy, because you want it to happen to you.
I also even like Nikki Deloach in this film, she's definitely one of the better actors in these films.
Even the kid is cute and not annoying for a change. Also Zach Tinker is hot! I'm assuming that his character here is gay, just because, if it's true, they can make a sequel where he falls in love with me.
You can believe the love blossoming in this one and the feel of Christmas is almost tangible. I like the idea of the 12 Days of Christmas ornaments and their relevance here helps the story along nicely.
Sweet, easy viewing and enjoyable.
