Preview — Christmas Pen Pals: Sarah Drew Returns to TV for the Holidays
Christmas is coming early this year for Sarah Drew fans! After about seven months off of the small screen, she’s back where she belongs.
Lifetime’s Christmas Pen Pals stars Drew as Hannah Morris, the technology-reliant co-creator of the dating app The Perfect One. Uninspired after a breakup, she returns home to try and find a spark that will both save her business and teach her the secret to falling in love.
She doesn’t expect to find it. After all, her job is to create it through algorithms. A spark without the help of a “smart” device? She can’t fathom it.
But when she makes a deal with her dad to sign up for the town’s Christmas Cupid letter exchange so he doesn’t have to do it alone, she learns that you can find a spark anywhere — even in handwritten letters. All you have to do is believe.
Check out the promo video below for a preview!
Official synopsis:
Following an unexpected breakup weeks before Christmas, Hannah (Sarah Drew), tech wiz and creator of the dating app, Perfect One, heads home for the holidays, challenged to save her failing business by re-conceiving a new romantic dating model. Upon her return she runs into her high school boyfriend, Sam (Niall Matter) who she has carefully avoided for years and reluctantly makes a deal with her dad, Ted (Michael Gross) to sign up for the town’s Christmas Cupid, an anonymous holiday pen pal service.
As the season progresses, Hannah is smitten by each beautifully written letter she receives and starts to believe that her Christmas pen pal could be her soul mate. It’s not until Christmas Eve that everyone must reveal their true identities to their pen pals, even if it means coming face to face with the last person they ever expected. Christmas Pen Pals is produced by Pen Pals Films, Inc. and Christian Bruyere. Linda Kent, Jack Grossbart and Howard Braunstein serve as executive producers. Siobhan Devine serves as director with a script written by Carley Smale. (Source: Lifetime)
