A charming, humorous, and emotional Christmas universe, perfect for both adults and young audiences, as only Cherry Chic can deliver.

Olivia is a strong-willed young woman who works as a receptionist at the Merry Hotel in New York. The hotel is in the middle of the Christmas season, a time Olivia dislikes almost as much as her boss, Noah Merry, grandson of the hotel’s elderly owners, Nora and Nicholas. In an effort to bring their employees closer together and boost their Christmas spirit, Nora and Nicholas organize a calendar of activities throughout December.

As if that weren’t enough, these activities will be broadcast live via the hotel’s TikTok account, managed by Avery, the social media coordinator. At first, Olivia—horrified at the idea of participating in Christmas challenges—uses it as an opportunity to compete with Noah, whom she cannot stand. Noah, for his part, sees it as a perfect chance to annoy Olivia, something that gives him an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

Over the course of 25 days, Olivia and Noah must face a series of challenges under Nora and Nicholas’s supervision. Against the backdrop of managing the Merry Hotel and coexisting with the rest of the staff, the protagonists’ mutual hostility gradually transforms, challenge by challenge, into a sweet, festive love story—streamed live on TikTok.

In Unexpected Christmas, Avery, a receptionist and social media content creator, works at the Merry Hotel in New York, where she has successfully made the place go viral thanks to her fun and relatable videos. However, after years of exposure, she begins to feel overwhelmed by the lack of privacy and plans to step away from social media. But her boss and friend, Noah Merry, has other plans: he asks Avery and her colleague Asher to travel to Vermont to take charge of a newly acquired rural hotel, the Silverwood Hotel, with the goal of revitalizing it before the Christmas season.

Reluctantly, Avery and Asher accept the challenge and move to the picturesque town of Silverwood, where they discover that the hotel, though charming, is in decline due to a lack of guests and resistance from the former owners, George and Margaret Gingerbread, who remain partners and are unhappy with the changes. George, in particular, is hostile and distrustful, while their children, Luke and Violet, and an employee, Savannah, are more receptive but still skeptical.

Avery focuses on promoting the hotel through her social media channels, while Asher, as the new manager, tries to earn George’s respect and learn the intricacies of running a rural business. As they work together, their dynamic begins to shift: Asher shows unexpected maturity, and Avery confronts her own fears, including an online stalker who has followed her to Vermont. Amid tension and stress, Avery and Asher discover that what began as a professional assignment may become something much more special.
