My thoughts
I'm just going to go ahead and say it, this was my favorite 2023 Hallmark Christmas Movie!
New to Hallmark Erica Cerra and familiar face Victor Webster have great chemistry and play off each other so well.
Heidi has just moved to town with her two preteen kids for a job at the local history museum and David is a handyman and former curator of said museum.
Their interactions are fun, a little goofy at times, and completely believable. I loved their interactions and we even get a romantic little dance in front of a Christmas tree.
All that being said, it's the "mystery" that really grabbed my attention and the supporting cast, including the kids, truly did a wonderful job!
Heidi and her kids have moved into an old abandoned house called Mistletoe Manor, and discover a Christmas treasure hunt with little toy reindeer and riddles.
As the movie progresses, David's father also gets involved and the story gets a bit more complicated. I don't want to give too much away but once the mystery is solved, it's quite touching.
The entire movie flows seamlessly with the mystery and romance being pretty balanced.
Final rating
The film is a bit far fetched at times, but overall a wonderful movie filled with romance, grief, family, community, and a touch of mystery. I will happily watch this again and again!
On a scale of 1 to 5, I give it a 5
