Daniella has recently moved to New York to pursue an art career and decides to stay in town to share the holidays with her circle of artist friends, instead of going home to see her sweet, if overbearing, parents. Amelia is a talented entertainment lawyer trying to stay focused on her work after a broken engagement. When Daniella and Amelia are set up by their parents, they agree to pretend that they are dating, to appease them for the holidays. However, as they spend time in each other’s worlds, they soon build a connection that is deeper than either of them could have hoped for.

Viewing Notes
Bonus Advent treat!
Perhaps my favorite new-to-me Christmas movie this year. Unlike the previous movie I watched, BEYOND CHRISTMAS, this had me hooked from the start.
After viewing KILLER HIGH last month I looked up the cast bc I really dug Humberly Gonzalez. Saw she was in a Christmas movie so I earmarked it for Advent. What a pleasant surprise.
Also, props to Hallmark for making a lesbian holiday movie. And in Hallmark tradition, they set the story in New York City but filmed in Vancouver. The ole Vogue Theater makes a brief appearance (again).
