Thank you to the other reviewers who wrote about the dissatisfying ending. I did the same thing, re-watching the ending to see if I somehow missed the conversations between the male lead (Peter) and his father, and the female lead (Sara) and the jerky client. How the heck did everything get wrapped up so neatly? And I agree that it certainly appeared that Peter would not have run after Sara at the end if she hadn't gotten the contract signed, since he was totally cold to her when she arrived. Wow. True love.And way too much wasted filler... for example, wouldn't it have been cool if the mother and daughter who Sara helped at the car rental agency turned out to be the client's family, which is why he had a change of heart??? As it was, it seemed like just a silly waste of time that could otherwise have been used to explain the "happy ending."

Very cute, but terrible ending. This woman made everything okedoke at the end by going back to her wimpy self, not speaking her mind, not standing up for herself. To make her man happy, she needed to endure abusive, demeaning comments from the man they were trying to get a contract with. She apologizes to him, goes to her man, he finds out she wimped out but got the contract, and he liked her again. No apology from the boyfriend. Bad Christmas movie. Bad. Not to mention appearing to leave out important parts.Very cute, but terrible ending.

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA OR TIES TO FILMS I REVIEW. It seem like Hallmark has 3 actresses they cast in all their films. "Lacey Chabert" "Candace Cameron-Bure" and "Alicia Witt". I am just waiting one day to see them all in one film together or it least have their Hallmark Movies take place in the same town. Well anyway this is my review of a solid Hallmark film that is one of the better ones I have seen this year. In this film Lacey plays Sara a sweet young hard working career woman who people take advantage of. Her friend makes her do her work (And pick up coffee for her staff) and her boss just stole her idea and presented it as his own. Now at an office Christmas Sara is given a wish by a secret Santa. Her wish is for that she wants to not be afraid of speaking up for herself. Well guess what her wish comes true and she gets instantly reported after the big boss hears Sara giving her boss the riot act. The story takes a predictable turn but you will still enjoy the romance. The film works and is highly enjoyable. Please watch it. It is one of the better films made so for that I have seen this year.
