Plot: In the approach to Christmas, Ashley Durreau and Scott Briggs have both just arrived in Idaho Falls, in some respects the last place they want to be, in addition to each having unexpectedly just broken up with the person with who they were to spend Christmas. A local girl, Ashley is a commercial real estate broker in New York City, and with the exception of spending time with her loving family, her parents who sacrificed much in their own lives to get her on her feet in the big city, Ashley has tried to put Idaho Falls behind her due partly to the sacrifice by her parents. With a recent work setback, she would rather be back in New York City to get her career back on track. Scott has just been traded to play for the local junior hockey team, the Idaho Falls Fighting Trout. The son of who is expected to be inducted into the NHL Hall of Fame this year, Scott has dreams of making it into the NHL himself to measure up to his father, but at age thirty-two, a good decade or more older than all his teammates, his time is running out, especially as he has to be called up to the team in Boise before the NHL is even a possibility. Scott ends up living in the Durreaus' guest house while in town, and while Scott would just like to spend as much time on the ice in his goal of getting out of Idaho Falls as quickly as possible, Coach Jensen stresses to him that to do so, he has to be a good team player which means participating in community activities as part of the team in the hockey mad town, especially important at Christmas. As Ashley and Scott spend time together as they work on those stated goals, they may each come to realizations that those goals may not be what they really want but are solely expectations they have placed on themselves as they start to fall for each other.
