As a fan of the first movie, there was really no need to make a sequel. The ending of the first movie was heart-warming and the perfect ending, so it was extremely unexpected to find out right at the start of this movie that they had broken up. The cute awkward chemistry that these characters once had seemed really forced in this sequel. I felt like the writers were trying really hard to recreate those cute moments, but unfortunately it didn't make it. There were some cute moments in the movie, like when they were both looking for the perfect Christmas tree and were unknowingly looking at the same one, and when Zachary grabbed Marilee's hands to warm them. With all of this being said, it's not the worst Hallmark movie, but it's definitely not one of the most inspired story writings.
