As a young girl, Eliza was inspired by the book The 100 Wonders of the World, and as soon as she was able, she set off and became a travel blogger. When she makes a brief stop at home just before Christmas, she finds out that her next gig has been canceled. She takes the opportunity to visit her family for the holidays—something she hasn’t done in many years. At home, she is immediately swept up in her mother’s Christmas traditions. She also runs into Will, who has always been her brother’s best friend. There has always been a spark between them, but nothing has ever happened. On top of that, Eliza has been in a long-distance relationship with another man for several years, seeing him only during her breaks between trips.
