I’ve watched many holiday romances and have selected my current favourites so you don’t have to watch the really terrible ones. You’re welcome.
A Christmas Prince
Sure, the sequel was just released, and it was cute, but nothing can compare to the original. Basically, a reporter pretends to be a nanny for the prince’s sister so she can get some scoop but then falls for the prince. Of course.
Where to watch: Netflix
Mistletoe Inn
A romance writer (yesssss) goes on a retreat to help get inspiration to finish her book at the most gorgeous location possible (which also was the place where Peter and Lara Jean from To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before had their hot tub scene). While there, a fellow writer helps her with her writing process, and her feelings (hahahaha I’m loving this) but there’s more to his story, of course.
Where to watch: Hallmark/W Network
The Spirit of Christmas
I mean, the basic premise is that an old holiday home needs to be sold and a workaholic lawyer comes to get it done. What she doesn’t expect is for the home to be haunted by a handsome spirit, who she can see and talk to, and who’s death is questionable. And before you ask – yes, he’s legit a ghost. And yes, it all works out. Let sensibility be set aside because this one was a favourite. Also, there’s a scene where I question how cold the snow actually is.
Where to watch: It’s an older Hallmark movie. No idea where to find it now, but please let me know if catch it so I can rewatch.
The Holiday Calendar
A photographer dreams of owning her own studio but feels stuck in her job. Meanwhile, it seems Christmas luck is on her side when she begins to date a far-to-perfect guy, while her grandpa’s magical advent calendar is predicting her December. But her handsome travel blogging child hood friend comes back to town and he’s supportive and funny and awesome which creates complications. Right?
Where to watch: Netflix
The Princess Switch
Ah yes, the classic ‘there’s another human that looks just like me let’s switch lives’ plot, but set around Christmas and with handsome men (one of them a prince, the other a baker). It’s predictable and silly but it was fun.
