Abbey senses something special about the little man tending to
the reindeer who, along with a century-old farmhouse, a barn full
of animals, and fields abounding in woods and pasture, was a gift
to Abbey from a stranger. Abbey and her husband, Steve, move in
just before the holidays. They have been together since the '60s,
eloping when Steve returned from Vietnam. Now with Abbey's cancer
in remission, they're looking forward to their boys coming home for
Christmas.
Turns out this Christmas proves to be more magical than
anticipated as Abbey realizes an understanding never thought
possible through the rekindling of a belief rooted in childhood. Of
course it's who delivers this gift on Christmas Eve that gives
Abbey and Steve the strength to face their greatest challenge.
