Love in the Maldives on Hallmark Channel
According to the official synopsis, Love in the Maldives tells the story of Rae Parker (Jocelyn Hudon), a travel writer who lives a very fabulous, single life. However, when her editor wants to send her to the world’s most romantic and exotic vacation destination to write for her monthly travel column, she is surprised. Rae is an adventurous spirit and finds it hard to find the type of experiences she needs for her column while staying at the luxurious Muraka.
What doesn’t help is the fact that Rae is very afraid of the open ocean, and a hotel that floats in the middle of it. However, after a few failed solo attempts, Rae comes to the conclusion that she needs some expert guidance and support to take on challenges that are outside her comfort zone.
Meanwhile, Jared Joseph (Jake Manley), the resort’s Guest Experience Expert, steps in to make it his personal mission to give Rae the adventure she is seeking. Could this lead to love in paradise?
