More Hallmark Christmas in July 2017

 

Hallmark has finally released the info on the last batch of their new Christmas movies for 2017. They must be realizing how much many of us look forward to these new movies each year, because every year they produce more than the year before. They have to know how much we love that! So, here are the details of this last group - the first 7 listed here will be on the regular Hallmark channel, and the last 2 on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries...


SECRET SANTA
Just how secret does an office secret Santa have to be? In Melanie's case, she finds it's just a little too covert. The assignments were distributed for Secret Santa, and Melanie is a little worried but very excited that she was given her crush, Donovan. She comes up with thoughtful gifts and spot-on notes. Donovan is so taken by his Secret Santa, he starts to fall in love - only someone else is stealing her credit, pretending to be his Secret Santa. Now Melanie must work to prove to Donovan that she is the right one as far as Santas and girlfriends go.

WHEN CALLS THE HEART CHRISTMAS
A loved one returns, Christmas spirit is renewed, and children's wishes are granted in this heartwarming Christmas movie featuring the series' beloved characters. Elizabeth's fiance, Jack, surprises her, coming on home on leave and bringing a young Mountie desperately searching for Christmas inspiration. The community of Hope Valley works together to aid this young man with the help of an enchanted Wishing Tree. And as mayor, Abigail is pretty busy. Recognizing that, her newly adopted son, Cody, engages classmates in creating the town's annual Christmas Celebration. While Sheriff Bill Avery forges a relationship with the disgraced former mayor, Henry Gowen, Rosemary and Lee are reminded that family is the true meaning of Christmas.

SNOW GLOBE WISHES
Snow globes can have a magical, mesmerizing sway over those who concentrate on them. No one knows that better than residents of Evergreen, Vermont. In this bucolic burg, where families have lived for generations and take care of each other, there's a belief that if you wish upon the snow globe in the local cafe, that wish will come true. The only catch is the wish must be completely sincere. When the town veterinarian wishes that this will be her most romantic Christmas ever, she figures that will happen with her longtime beau. Stranded in an airport, she befriends a businessman and his daughter, who had made her own wish on the snow globe. The magical Christmas they share turns out to be more than anyone wished for.

ENCHANTED CHRISTMAS
Weeks before Christmas, interior designer Laura is sent to her hometown of Santa Fe, New Mexico to remodel a landmark hotel. As Laura is kept busy with the renovations, her 8-year-old daughter Nicole is introduced to the art of salsa dancing at a local dance studio. Laura is surprised to find that the studio's owner is Ricardo, her old high school sweetheart and former salsa dance partner. When Laura and Ricardo reconnect, sparks fly on and off the dance floor. The beautiful Christmas traditions of New Mexico become the backdrop for spirited dancing and unexpected romance.

KISS FOR THE NEW YEAR
That first kiss of the New Year is special: It's supposed to signify that special person with whom we'll spend the next year, and possibly, forever. So it's wise not to squander those affections. When everyone else just puckers up to the nearest set of lips, Robin has always kept her wits - and her mouth - to herself. An established photographer at a lifestyle website, she's assigned to work on a New Year's Eve story with a new hire, Todd. When she confides in Todd that she has never kissed anyone as the clock strikes midnight, he sets about to correct this, by finding someone for Robin to kiss at the magic hour. His theory is a kiss is just a kiss, and she should enjoy the moment. Ultimately, they are both right. Todd finds a man for her to smooch, and Robin does find the right man. And guess who fits the bill?

EVERGREEN INN
Sophie Bennett begins a new holiday tradition of spending every holiday at the Evergreen Inn and Ski Lodge, which she inherited from her parents. Evergreen Inn is a special place filled with people who cannot make it home for the holidays or who have had such wonderful experiences that it has become their home-away-from-holiday-home. This Christmas, Sophie will meet an unforgettable family, and her own life will be forever changed.

THE CHRISTMAS CURE
An emergency room doctor returns home for Christmas after many years to find that her father has decided to retire. After reuniting with her high school sweetheart and spending an emotional Christmas with her family, she must decide if she will stay in her hometown and takeover her father's practice.


NEVER TOO LATE FOR CHRISTMAS
Rebecca, a businesswoman who has let go of her joy of Christmas, is trying to secure her next big deal and promotion to executive vice president before the end of the year. When she's sent on assignment to a remote town, she meets the handsome widower John, owner of the Holly & Ivy Inn, which is named after his two daughters. It's not long before Rebecca's all-business exterior begins to thaw and she finds her Christmas spirit returning just in time.

MAGICAL CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS
A book editor, Marie had always adored Christmas, but that love faded when her marriage ended on Christmas Eve four years ago. To rekindle Marie's love of the season, her mom sends a family Christmas ornament every day. Marie decorates her tree and feels her spirits lift with each ornament. Though she's still limiting her seasonal festivities, Marie reads to children at a hospital, where she meets an attractive nurse, Nate. Marie is delighted when she gets to work with her favorite author on his new children's book. She also happily organizes a book drive with Nate. Maybe mom's ornaments are magical after all. But Marie jeopardizes her job when she refuses to edit her ex-husband's book and starts to feel rather negative again - until her mom reminds her that the magic isn't inside the ornaments but inside her.


And as we have come to expect - there are always changes. So far, there have been changes to the titles of a couple of the movies. Rather than updating past blog posts or detailing all the changes here - just keep your eye on our New Christmas Movies 2017 page which will have all the latest info.

It also appears that the start dates for Christmas in July have changed too. They each have been pushed back a week from the original announcement. Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel will now begin on Friday July 7th and run through Sunday July 16th. The Hallmark Channel will start on Friday July 14th and continue through Sunday July 23rd. And the best news is that both networks are planning a new original premiere during July. The Hallmark channel will premiere "The Christmas Cure" on Saturday 7/15, and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries will premiere "Home for Christmas Day" on Sunday 7/16. Looks like that will be a great weekend... Get the popcorn ready!
