"Moonlight In Vermont"

"Moonlight In Vermont" is a Hallmark original movie starring Lacey Chabert and Carlo Marks.  Fiona is a very successful New York City real estate broker who has to reevaluate her life after her boyfriend, Nate, breaks up with her because she never seems to have time for him.  Fiona's mother died when she was 20 and her successful Wall Street broker father sold the family apartment near Central Park and purchased an inn in Vermont which he now runs with her stepmother.  She hasn't quite forgiven her father for selling the family home.

When she is offered the job opportunity of a lifetime while still smarting from Nate's breaking up with her, her best friend (a therapist) suggests they take a few days to escape to her father's inn in Vermont to give her time to contemplate her future and perhaps heal the rift between her and her father.

Fiona is surprised to find her brother at the Inn helping her dad with internet marketing but her friend is delighted to renew his acquaintance.  When Nate shows up with a new girlfriend already to spend a few days at the inn, Fiona is hurt but decides to not show it by blurting out that she, too, has a new boyfriend - Derek, her father's very handsome and laid-back chef.

Of course, this is news to Derek but he decides to play along when she agrees to help him purchase a piece of land he needs to locally grow vegetables for the kitchen.  The scheme to make Nate jealous works but living a laid back life in Vermont for a few days, having a meaningful conversation with her father, and getting to know Derek better changes her priorities and transfers her affections - with a few glitches along the way, of course!  pazt
