Here’s a full summary of the movie: Merry (Cook), is a successful dating advice writer and influencer living in Boston. But, despite her widely shared rules for dating, she hasn’t yet found love for herself. Merry writes a book based on her real-life experiences with love and unintentionally includes a fictional, perfect fiancée named Dale that her publisher, Sonia (Karen Malina White), believes is real.

Merry decides to go home with her best friend Darlene (Amy Groening) to figure out how she can come clean to her publisher before the book is published and her reputation is ruined by a lie. Merry quickly runs into Adam (Van Winkle), Darlene’s brother, and sparks fly. They have very different views on what it takes for two people to fall in love but soon realize that, despite how incompatible they are on paper, they’re falling for each other.

As Christmas approaches, Merry learns she can let go of some of her rules for love while Adam realizes there is plenty of room in his heart to try again. When she decides to take a chance on her feelings for Adam, Merry also finds the perfect solution to her book.

‘Tis The Season To Be Merry premieres TONIGHT, December 19 at 8 p.m. on Hallmark Channel.
