Years later, Kacie is determined to reconnect with her daughter. With a new name and a new look, she gains entrance into her daughter's life through deception. The companion Christopher hired for his daughter reminds him of someone from his past-his missing wife. Although he keeps quiet about recognizing her, Christopher is curious as to why she is using a fake name and is suddenly so interested in the daughter she abandoned at the hospital. When Kacie and Christopher discover that Christopher's mother is the culprit behind the lies, deception, and chaos of their marriage, love makes it possible to forgive. The spirit of Christmas reunites a mother with her daughter and brings joy, peace, and happiness in the rekindling of what appeared to be a hopeless marriage."
