AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR A SUITE HOLIDAY ROMANCE December 13 2025 | Hallmark Channel CAST & CREW OF A SUITE HOLIDAY ROMANCE Jessy Schram as Sabrina Dominic Sherwood as Ian BRAN’S A SUITE HOLIDAY ROMANCE SYNOPSIS We learn about the Cordelia books by Hazel Holly, a beloved series that has been read by many and adored by all. We meet Sabrina, a writer who penned a glowing piece about the books. As a result, she’s chosen to ghostwrite a memoir and is put up at the Grand Fairbanks Hotel in the legendary Cordelia Suite — a very big deal. She meets Grayson Westcott, the man who hired her. She’ll be interviewing him about his life as an art broker and writing his memoir, but she only has until Christmas Eve to gather everything she needs. One night, while working late, Sabrina craves a sandwich. She calls down to the bar, runs in, and starts eating the first sandwich she sees — which turns out to belong to Ian, who’s sitting nearby. He doesn’t mind at all and clearly wants to keep talking, but the bar is closing. Maybe another time. The next day, Sabrina continues interviewing Grayson and learns that he was once Hazel Holly’s butler at this very hotel. He’s hesitant to talk about that part of his life, but when he opens up, she’s completely captivated. Later, she runs into Ian again and they grab coffee. He tells her he works for a charity and that it’s his first time in the city. What Sabrina doesn’t know is that he actually works for the royal family — something he’s keeping very quiet. After overhearing a conversation at dinner, she mistakenly assumes he is royalty. Could he be Lord Braxton? She keeps her suspicions to herself as they continue spending time together and sparks fly. Ian suddenly has to leave town to make sure Lord Braxton doesn’t marry a woman he just met. They reunite at the Christmas ball, where they dance and share a magical evening — until Ian notices Lord Braxton leaving early and has to follow him. He does return for a kiss first, though. Sabrina is both smitten and increasingly frustrated by how Ian disappears without warning. For various reasons, Sabrina never quite asks him outright if he’s Lord Braxton, and Ian never tells her that he works for the royal family. When she joins him at a charity event, she’s having a great time — until she spots a jewelry box in his bag. Lord Braxton is known for proposing quickly… is Ian about to propose to her ? During a dinner date, Sabrina finally admits she thinks he’s Lord Braxton — but before Ian can explain, he’s called away again . After hearing more of Grayson’s story, Sabrina decides to end things before Ian can break her heart. Grayson is baffled and basically says, “How on earth did you get that from my story?!” Sabrina attends a gala and finally learns the truth: Ian is not Lord Braxton. Overwhelmed, she storms out. After more conversations with Grayson, he encourages her to rethink everything. Speaking of Grayson, Sabrina reunites him with his long-lost love, Charlotte — who is Lady Braxton. Grayson insists he’s too old for love, but Sabrina shuts that down immediately. They rush to see each other, and it’s beautiful. Sabrina races to find Ian, but she’s told he’s already left for the airport — except he hasn’t. He stayed because he’s fallen for her. He gives her the jewelry box, revealing not an engagement ring, but a snowflake necklace. They talk things through, make up, and he tells her he’s moving to the States to expand the charity. They kiss — big ones. The movie ends with Grayson and Lady Braxton getting married. At their wedding, we see that Ian and Sabrina are engaged. She talks with Grayson more and he encoruages her to think about things a bit more.
