Long Lost Christmas
A Hallmark Movies & Mysteries original movie. This Christmas, interior designer Hayley plans to surprise her recently widowed mother Patricia with the perfect holiday present: the extended family she knows her mom yearns for. Hayley herself thinks she and her mom are fine alone, but she has recently discovered the existence of a lost relative, a brother who aged out of the foster care system before Patricia and was never heard from again. Hayley hopes to find this lost brother and reunite the two siblings for Christmas. She travels to a town outside of Denver to chase a lead on a man named Gordon who owns a cabin construction company and who just might be her uncle. Hayley is delighted by the town, all decked out for Christmas, and so charmed when she meets Gordon, his daughter Brianna, and handsome property manager Jake, but she does not reveal her true purpose for being in town. As Hayley tries to discover whether Gordon is actually her long lost uncle, she beings to fall in love with the idea of extended family, the charm of the town, and Jake. However, when she learns that Gordon is in fact her uncle and that he abandoned her mother all those years ago, she feels hurt on behalf of her mother and decides to abandon her mission. Gordon, however, is happy to finally have a lead on Patricia so he can attempt to reunite with his sister and repair that relationship. On Christmas Eve, Gordon, Brianna, and Jake arrive at Patricia's house and the family is reunited at last.
