Barrington Magic.
What does it take to help a little girl believe in Christmas?
Little Evie Scott (almost six) wants proof that Santa is real. Her Mum, Samantha and partner Jamie are determined Evie should have her very first truly magical Christmas.
But Evie isn't the only one wishing for better things. Young Veterinarian Frederica Campbell is keen to come home, but she left under a cloud almost two years before, after breaking Lucas Anderson's heart. Following a harrowing time with a new man, she finally understands the mistakes she's made. She knows Lucas won't forgive her, but hopes they can be civil, at least.
Meanwhile, Barrington is in drought and local businesses are doing it tough. Hannelore Tucker is pushing the local Chamber of Commerce to think outside the box to keep the local economy turning over. When her boyfriend Harry Stewart announces he's starting a new business, and comes up with a spin on one of Hannelore's ideas, it sets the town alight.
When Samantha wonders what it will take to convince Evie that Santa is real, will the answer be - just a little bit of Barrington Magic?
