Movie: A Christmas Miracle for Daisy
Network: GAC Family
Starring: Jill Wagner and Nick Bateman
Synopsis: Whitney Alder (Wagner) owns interior design firm, Marietta Designs, which she runs with her friend Andi (Tegan Moss, “Aurora Teagarden Mysteries”) in the small town of Marietta, Montana. Whitney is designing Santa’s float for the annual Marietta Christmas Parade when a potential job opportunity comes her way: the full redesign of a landmark home by Christmas Eve. Despite the challenge, Whitney and Andi sign onto the job — only to discover the home’s new owner is Whitney’s ex-boyfriend, Connor Sheenan (Bateman), who has moved to town from Los Angeles with his bright-eyed, young daughter, Daisy (Rubi Tupper). Connor had no intention of becoming a family man, but when his goddaughter is orphaned, he adopts her and commits to becoming a devoted single dad. More than anything, Daisy wishes for a mom to complete her picture-perfect family, and no prospect is as perfect as Whitney. Tall order, but Christmas is a time for miracles.
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐1/2

Review:
Another movie from the new GAC Family channel and another solid output. This movie was pretty good. The one thing that GAC does well is letting you know you are in a Christmas movie. The sets and decorations for every movie they have released this season are absolutely spectacular.
Jill Wagner stars as Whitney who is an interior designer who secures the job of designing a landmark home for a new family who purchased it. Little does she know is that the new owner is her ex Connor (Bateman) and his daughter Daisy whom he adopted after she was orphaned. Whitney is none to pleased when she sees Connor as she knew him as a career driven non-committal guy. What she soon realizes is that he is now a retired wealthy single father who is ready to mingle with her again. What follows is a charming movie of a little girl who wishes for a mother and two exes who rediscover that they really are meant for each other.
This movie was worth the watch. Not sure if I would watch it every year but it had a solid prop and the acting was spectacular. Jill Wagner was solid, as usual, and Nick Bateman...boy did I like him. The chemistry between the two of them was fantastic which made the journey with them through the movie that much more enjoyable. Daisy was endearing and she had some cute moments on screen with Bateman and Wagner. Overall a solid movie.
