Christmas brings its much-needed
magic to those who need it most.
1959 – June and Patrick Elden spend their very first
Christmas together in their tiny downtown apartment in the rural town of
Redmond. As newlyweds, they have their entire lives ahead of them, and their
dreams of a home and family loom large. Despite not having much money, Patrick
surprises June with a beautiful Christmas star necklace as a symbol of all the
years to come. And as their life grows and changes, the story of that little
necklace becomes a family tradition that their children and grandchildren
cherish throughout the years.
2022 – Jessica Paxton hasn’t returned home for Christmas
since the passing of her beloved Grandma June. Despite being an accomplished
divorce lawyer in Minneapolis, she still dreads the thought of spending time
in her childhood home with her mother without her grandmother as a buffer. Her
mother hasn’t forgiven her for a long-ago tragedy, and frankly, Jess hasn’t
forgiven herself either. But her younger sister has begged her to come home, so
she does. What awaits her is a family full of problems and tension between her
and her mother at its worst. Should Jess turn tail and run for home, or will
the Christmas traditions of the past prove strong enough to hold this family
together?
