My name is Clark Hathens, and let me start of by saying I never meant to do this. I love my wife, fuck, I love her so much (at least I think so). She's gorgeous, lovely, stunning. It's just that after so many years, that wasn't enough. I never planned on this, never thought I'd be that kind of person. But really, does anyone? No one just wakes up in the morning and says, I'm going to cheat on the most important person in my life. It just happens.. Do I regret it? Yes - but also no. I know what you're thinking, I must be a total ass. But let me start from the beginning, of everything.
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.
