The Mistletoe Promise
Synopsis from Hallmark Channel: A chance meeting between two strangers who share a disdain for Christmas results in The Mistletoe Promise, a pact to help them navigate their holiday complications – together. But as they spend more time with each other and experience the magic of Christmas the phony couple discovers there may be more to their contract than business. Based on the bestselling novel by Richard Paul Evans. Starring Jaime King and Luke MacFarlane.
In this one, we get not one, but two characters who dislike Christmas, but they come around...through their mutual deception of their coworkers and former loved ones! And it all started in the food court at the mall...
This movie features another appearance of "Corporate Office Which I'm Sure Is Really The Hallmark Channel Office". And actually, it may double for both the female lead's travel agency office and the law firm that the male lead works at.
Seriously, I've seen that section of office pictured above in at least one other Hallmark Christmas movie.
Here's another shot of it. It really is a nice building.
This ice skating rink gets used a lot too. Probably somewhere in downtown Toronto.
The female lead (Elise) has a hairstyle through much of this movie that one of my coworkers described as "extreme".
Elise's ex-husband is played by this guy, who plays a dirt bag in, like, everything.

I have to admit though, that I genuinely like this one. And not just for the corniness or the usual Hallmark movie-isms. Sure, it's weird, with its frequent trips back to the food court, and a snowman building contest between adults, but it's also enjoyable in a non-corny way as well.
