I watched a few with her and the basic plot is like this:
Successful working woman from the city takes a vacation from her high-stress six figure corporate job to visit the country during the Christmas season in which she meets some very masculine blue-collar man who just lost his wife to cancer and has two or three kids running around. She ends up in a snowball fight with the kids and after getting knocked down, the man picks her up and they start kissing. A little drama ensues. But in the end, she eschews her life in the city and decides she will stay with the man and the kids out in the country living a simpler life.
What this tells me is that most of these career city women are unfulfilled and wish for a real man to come into their lives.
But the really successful and driven urban working women aren't watching the movies, and don't want the small town guy.
There's some variation, too. Sometimes it's a big city rich guy and a small town girl.
The new Black Hallmark flicks will probably be the same as the others, just as good or just as bad.
Is that your life has become so politicized that you no longer have appreciation for wholesome movies that have happy endings and instead look for some subliminal message in those movies that would confirm your somewhat jaded outlook on life......

EXACTLY what I say/said.
Same movie, different character names. . .but yet my wife records and watches all of those movies.
What this tells me is that most of these career city women are unfulfilled and wish for a real man to come into their lives.
You have define the plots perfectly
I avoid these and books where the heroine is described as “spunky.”
half the time its a successful city businessman trying to secretly close down the sky lodge and falls in love with the girl in the bakery and SAVES the lodge....
Often visiting at a lodge that is closing because times are different.
