I loved this film and so appreciated the inclusion of a modern family. Bravo to Hallmark for including diversity and substance! The acting was awesome. Tamera beautifully and seamlessly depicted a busy Mom navigating through life while having an open and loving relationship with her adopted daughter. That, in and of itself, is something to be celebrated. Couple that with the charm of her love interest and the sweetness of her daughter and some good ole Christmas magic made for a great feel good Christmas movie and a perfect start to my holiday. This one is worth watching! I will definitely be watching it again.

The storyline was relatable not only to Moms, but to anyone who still has a dream they haven't pursued. I could completely relate to the relationship Danielle (Tamera Mowry Housley) had with her daughter and loved their interactions, especially their dance scenes and when she realized that she didn't like the example she had been setting for her daughter. Tamera's vocals were stellar and her acting was believable. Her chemistry with her co-lead and the other actors was great. In fact, I felt she brought out the best in everyone.

3 generations of women (my daughter, me and my Mom) thoroughly enjoyed the movie. It was the perfect movie for Mother's Day weekend. Bravo!!!!

This was not your typical Hallmark Christmas movie and that is precisely one of the reasons why I loved it! The diversity was refreshing. The acting was believable. And, the story line was relatable. Tamera Mowry Housley, bravo!!! She did an amazing job! Navigating grief looks different for everyone and her emotions were palpable ... believable. Having a story of hope and promise (the Christmas prince) to share with her daughter was, in my opinion, beautiful. Bonus that he actually turned out to be a 'Prince' for both of them. I loved that she was casted as a brilliant, beautiful and confident woman. We need more of that!!! Isabel (who played Shelby's daughter) is a shining star. Amazing job and I'm looking forward to seeing her more. Great job by everyone. I've already watched the movie twice and saw things I missed the first time. If you're looking for a feel good Christmas film with a 'not your typical Hallmark storyline', this movie is definitely for you!

This movie checked off all of the boxes for me. I loved everything from the supportive friendships to the rich culture and beautiful scenery. It was a refreshing twist on the typical Hallmark movie. I didn't want it to end.

Bravo Hallmark! More. Like. This. Please. Amazing job, Keshia Knight Pulliam! Your vision and execution was very much appreciated by me. Tamera Mowry Housley, you were fantabulous! I saw so much growth!!! You should be very proud of your work. The chemistry between all of the actors seemed effortless and believable.

Overall, 10 out of 10 for me. And, I will watch it again and again!
