On December 18, the Lifetime movie Wrapped Up in Love will debut at 8 PM.
Ashley Mackenzie (Brittany Bristow) has always been the preeminent “Christmas Queen” in town. From making hand-crafted decorations for the office to hosting the town’s annual Christmas sweater competition, she loves everything about the holiday…that is, until she meets her match in Ben Williams (Olivier Renaud).
Ben is the devilishly handsome new guy in town who loves Christmas just as much as she does – and unwittingly begins to steal her thunder. But as Ashley begins to feel like Ben is taking Christmas away from her, she is reminded of the true spirit of the holiday, and she joins forces with him to make this Christmas even more meaningful.
Unfortunately, there is no trailer available for Wrapped Up in Love.
