Movie Synopsis: A Heavenly Christma s on the Hallmark Channel
A busy Eve Morgan has the perfect job in finance. But this Christmas, the powers that be want her to be more in tune with the true meaning of the holidays. She’s been neglecting her family and has lost the overall spirit. And just when the stockbroker is ready to power through Christmas without thinking of anyone else, she takes a nasty fall on the ice-topped pavement just outside of her fancy office building.
Sadly, Eve Morgan doesn’t survive this fall. When she dies and goes to heaven, she meets Pearl, a mentoring angel, who lets her know the ropes of angel life. But if Eve thinks she can sit in heaven with nothing to do, she’s in for a big surprise.
Eve must help an earthling through a difficult time in his life. Max is a struggling singer with financial problems and Lauren is his loving niece who has been praying for someone to help him. Eve Morgan is the angel to do just that. But she must not get too close.

As Eve forms a bond with Lauren and Max, against Pearl’s heavenly advice, she begins to have deep romantic feelings for Max, who doesn’t know her secret.
Now Eve has to come to grips with the fact that she lost her chance to have love in her life while on earth. But perhaps somehow, she is able to make it all right again before she is summoned back to heaven.
