More Detail:

FALL INTO WINTER is a winter romantic comedy on the Great American Family Channel.

Lori Loughlin makes her network debut as Kari, a candy store owner who’s busy prepping for the store’s busiest time of the year, Winterfest. However, her brother and part owner of the store, tells her that he and his wife are moving to London. He says he must sell his half of the company but reassures Kari he has a trusted buyer lined up to buy.

Kari’s sadness turns to frustration when she learns that the new business partner is a man named Brooks, a former high school classmate she didn’t like. Despite her reluctance, she agrees to Brooks becoming her business partner, but they get off to a rocky start.

Kari feels as if Brooks has no regard for her family’s legacy with the store, which was started by her grandparents. Meanwhile, Brooks believes Kari’s unwilling to make any changes to keep the business alive and thriving.

At first, Kari wants Brooks gone. However, after he finally shows genuine care for her and her family’s business, she starts to fall for Brooks. She forgets about her plan to replace him as a business partner and instead helps show him the ins and outs of owning a family business in a small town.

Meanwhile, Brooks is offered a top executive job in California and must decide between the prestigious position and Kari’s shop. In his short time as Kari’s business partner, Brooks has grown fond of the town, the candy store and Kari, but he admits to his father he’s tempted to take the higher-paying job. Another complication arises when there’s a miscommunication between Kari and Brooks about how they feel about one another.

FALL INTO WINTER is a wholesome romantic comedy with themes of forgiveness and giving people a second chance. While the production values falter a few times, the movie tells a heartfelt, cozy, holiday story that’s safe for the whole family. Also, FALL INTO WINTER is Lori Loughlin’s debut movie with Great American Family, and she delivers a great performance as the lead character.
