Way back when she was 13 years old, lonely
Holly Grant (
Kelli Williams), envying the busy social lives of her best friends, made a wish to receive a boyfriend for Christmas. Instead,
Holly was given a glass globe, ostensibly by "
Santa Claus" himself, with the attached message that her wish would be granted within the next two decades. Flash forward 20 years: Now a dedicated pro bono attorney, the still-unattached
Holly has experienced great success in making everyone happy -- except herself. Enter two men in our heroine's life:
Ted Powell (
Bruce Thomas), her onetime high school heartthrob, and some guy calling himself
Doug, who strangely resembles a person whom
Holly ardently dislikes -- and who may well be the answer to the wish posted to Santa twenty years before!
A Boyfriend for Christmas originally aired over the
Hallmark channel on November 27, 2004.
