Wrapped Up In Love on Lifetime
The last in the It’s a Wonderful Lifetime programming event, Wrapped Up in Love tells the story of a Christmas queen, hesitant to allow a handsome stranger to take away her thunder. According to Futon Critic, the synopsis involves Ashley Mackenzie (Brittany Bristow), who has always been the preeminent “Christmas Queen” in her town. Whether hosting the town’s annual Christmas sweater competition or making hand-crafted decorations for the office, she loves everything about the holiday.
Well, almost everything, as when she meets her match in Ben Williams (Olivier Renaud), she has a problem. Ben is the devilishly handsome new guy in town and loves Christmas just as much as she does. Meanwhile, he unwittingly begins to steal Ashley’s festive thunder.
However, as she begins to feel like he is taking Christmas away from her, she is reminded of the true spirit of the holiday. In fact, she ends up joining forces with Ben to make this Christmas even more meaningful.
