The Mistletoe Secret

The town of Midway, Utah - which celebrates Christmas in a big way as can be seen by the fact that they have a Christmas Council - has seen its Christmas tourist fortunes decline with a new nearby winter resort sucking up all the regional business. President of the council Aria Eubanks, who has owned and operated the Mistletoe Diner ever since her widowed father Mack Eubanks retired, believes her latest act as President may be the boost the town needs for Christmas: she submitted the town as an entry for famed travel writer and travel TV show host Sterling Masters' annual Big Holiday Adventure's destination feature on his travel website. Midway made the final three against some big city competition, namely Tokyo and Austin. Aria, who has a celebrity crush on Sterling in having fallen in love with both him from what she sees on TV but especially his writing, is unaware of two things about Sterling and the competition. First, Sterling's travel books and the website are actually ghost-written by his best friend from college, Alex Bartlett, Sterling solely being the good-looking, charismatic front for the travel brand. And second, Midway has already been chosen solely for logistical reasons by Sterling, Alex not too happy about spending his Christmas in small town Midway against the exciting bright lights of either of the other two finalists as he is the one who has to experience about what he will be writing. Despite their initial animosity, Alex and Aria begin to hit it off as Aria, in her genuine manner, shows him all that she and Midway have to offer. Things take a turn when Sterling unexpectedly swoops into town, and begins to fall for Aria himself, his sheer presence which may ruin any chance Alex has with her as even if she was aware of the truth, it was his honesty which made her fall for Alex in the first place.
