Every Hallmark Movie Plot
Female Protagonist works at a successful company in a huge city. She has an equally successful boyfriend who is on the verge of proposing marriage. She gets called away to the small town she escaped from years before because her parents die in a tragic accident. Everyone is town is cold towards her except her high school flame who for some reason never left the small town he grew up in. As she tries to sell the family house which has been in the family for generations, she learns that there is an evil development company buying up all the land. The plan is to turn the town into a luxury resort. As the movie progresses she turns from a heartless witch into a kind caring compassionate person who manages to save the town and everyone ends up adoring her. She rejects her successful boyfriends proposal and instead goes back to her heartthrob from high school who never quite got over her all those years ago even though with his rugged good looks he could have had any woman he wanted. This plot can easily incorporate Christmas time in the background for extra sappiness.
