The film opens with Charlotte Hart on her way to a small town to cover a story on a new restaurant. As she drives towards the town, she gets involved in a car accident and wakes up in the hospital with amnesia. Charlotte is unable to recall who she is, what she does or where she lives on her own. After leaving the hospital, she is taken in by the town's mayor, George (played by Charles Shaughnessy) and his family. The family is preparing for the town's annual Christmas festival, but Charlotte is initially hesitant about getting involved due to her memory loss.

As she begins to adjust to her new surroundings, Charlotte realizes that the town and its inhabitants are warm and welcoming. During her interactions with the townfolk, she comes to realize that there is more to life than just working and being ambitious. Daniel, a local handsome doctor who volunteers to help out with the festival is intrigued by Charlotte and tries to help her recover her memory. He is also dealing with his own issues, having lost his wife and child in an accident a year earlier.

As the festival approaches, Charlotte gets more involved and discovers that the restaurant she was supposed to cover has been built on sacred land that has a history in the town. She sets out to do some investigative journalism and finds some startling evidence that could shut down the restaurant. Meanwhile, Daniel is falling in love with Charlotte and is determined to help her regain her memory before she leaves town.
