Synopsis

Have yourself a very Merry Witchmas in Holiday Haven, where the magic and mystery of Christmas is snow joke!

It's Christmas time once again in Holiday Haven, and Star Clearwater has a choice to make. Her generous fiancé, Everett, won't push her to make it, but she knows it's only a matter of time.

In the middle of dealing with her own relationship woes, Star realizes that her mother's new boyfriend may not be what he appears. A shocking theft from the town's biggest jewelry store points to the new beau being the main suspect, and Star is ready to don her detective cap and investigate the case.

Will her mother's boyfriend check out? Will she find the true culprit? And will Star make the right decision—a decision that will change her life forever?
