What is ‘My Grown-Up Christmas List’ about?
My Grown-Up Christmas List is inspired by Amy Grant and David Foster’s hit holiday song of the same name. It tells the story of Taylor and Luke, who develop a special bond over the course of several Christmas spent both together and apart.
Taylor is a successful journalist. Several years ago, her mother died, and now she has returned home to help her grandfather with his Christmas store. Luke is in the military and is in town to spend the holidays with his family. When Taylor and Luke meet, they have undeniable chemistry. The movie follows them as they move from a warm friendship to a budding romance, working to overcome various challenges along the way. Throughout, they are committed to making their most important holiday wish come true: to spend every Christmas together for the rest of their lives.
