Amelia è una madre single che fa del suo meglio per prendersi cura del figlio, il piccolo Charlie. Nonostante qualche difficoltà economica, la sua vita procede senza particolari scossoni. Almeno fino a quando non scopre di essere l'ultima discendente della famiglia Chesterford, erede di un meraviglioso castello in riva al mare. Superato lo shock iniziale per la notizia, Amelia non riesce a credere alla propria fortuna, ma presto si rende conto che la faccenda non è semplice come aveva immaginato.

Quando la verità nascosta viene allo scoperto, Elle deve fare i conti con la forza degli affetti, la perdita e la trasformazione personale. È tempo di ricominciare: imparare a far tornare la magia, a costruire legami, a vivere il Natale nel cuore. Alla fine, ben più di storie passate, è la sua vita che sta per aprire un nuovo capitolo.

Elle è senza direzione, a corto di soldi e senza una vera casa. Il tutto proprio sotto Natale! Poi scopre un annuncio: serve qualcuno che racconti la storia di una vecchia casa e della famiglia che l’ha abitata. Senza sapere cosa aspettarsi, Elle accetta il lavoro, ma appena arriva a Mistletoe Square, capisce che quello non sarà un lavoro come gli altri e che qualcosa (o qualcuno) potrebbe addirittura finire per scaldarle il cuore.

Tra storie del passato, segreti custoditi negli oggetti di Natale, e incontri che illuminano la sua vita, Elle si ritrova coinvolta in un mondo fatto di ricordi e magie. Ogni sera, leggenda dopo leggenda, la storia della Christmas House prende forma e lei scopre che quella casa non è solo un rifugio, ma un ponte verso ciò che le era mancato: speranza, comunità, amore.
