Christmas can officially get stuffed because Harriet Smith is not feeling bright and merry this year. She hasn't for a while. So when her college-aged daughter opts for Manhattan's winter wonderland instead of Christmas at home, Harriet finds herself seeking solace in a wine-soaked one-night stand. But how Harriet will spend the holidays is swiftly decided for her after she takes the fall for some students who break into the town's old Winter Theater. To get the students off the hook, the theater's elderly owner requests that Harriet direct the washed-out stage's final Christmas performance. And Harriet will do anything to help the kids . . . even work with the owner's lawyer who, as it turns out, is her less than impressed one-night stand. Directing the play with him won't exactly change her life. But it might just reignite the Christmas spirit and remind her what makes life merry and bright again.

A December to Remember by Jenny Bayliss follows the three North sisters who rekindle their broken relationship in the wake of their father¿s death.
