Clarissa McGovern has everything a big-time Hollywood movie producer could want, and that includes some big-time awards! But all her success can't prepare her for Christmas on Candy Cane Lane in her hometown of Powder Springs. Clarissa's mother treats Christmas like a military campaign and this year is especially important because Clarissa's little sister is about to get engaged! This is the perfect McGovern Christmas until Clarissa discovers that her former boyfriend, who proposed to Clarissa one Christmas ago, is also staying at the McGovern house for Christmas. All Clarissa's feelings for Norris that she thought were gone have returned and just in time for a family-filled Christmas on Candy Cane Lane.
