What Is Jen Lilley’s New Movie Stay For Christmas About?

According to TV Fanatic, “Renowned luxury travel blogger, Tracey Wise (Lilley) is invited by owner Graham Cooper (Hutch) to a Christmas getaway in exchange for her review of his family’s small bed & breakfast, Silver Peak.”

“The bed & breakfast’s biggest concern is a sleek, upscale hotel resort that opened a hilltop away and has been siphoning off guests for several years, threatening the survival of the family business. Despite her reservations about accepting an invitation from the outdated Silver Peak, Tracey gets caught up in the multi-generational family fight to save a dream.”

“In turn, Tracey will learn the most down-home experience can be five-star when it is shared with kindred hearts.”
