My name is Emma Diggidigs. Yes, you heard it correctly. Diggidigs. I've heard all kinds of childish joke about my name, and some included, that Emma Diggidigs had to dig underground for a house, as she didn't have one. The saddest thing? I had sometimes wished I could really dig underground and have, at least, a small room of mine.
And now, somehow, Emma Diggidigs, the poorest girl on the streets, have managed to go to a boarding school. Great, I'm all excited, ready to go. Minor drawback? I have to share my room with a boy. And, of course, he is the school's famous playboy.
Boy, my life sucks.
When a bachelor-style reality show centered around finding this year's Mrs. Claus comes to Charlie's small town, she is vehemently against the attention it brings, yet in the chaos of it all, somehow finds herself in the running as a contestant... and falling in love.
*****
In the weeks before Christmas, Charlie Duncan's small town finds itself the backdrop to the hit new reality show, Finding Mrs. Claus. And to spice up the drama, a handful of locals are thrown into the casting mix, including not only Charlie, but her best friend Ellie as well. While Charlie does everything she can to get tossed off the show (to no avail), and watches skeptically as Ellie truly begins to open up her heart, she can't help but feel a certain spark for the man behind the scenes - the show's producer, Noah Cyrus.
