Forgotten Holiday
Subtitle: He forgot the last year of his life, but thankfully she remembered every awkward romantic detail.

Kathryn has a pretty good relationship with Rob until he proposes marriage and she responds by doing what any emotionally prepared adult would do: running away. Unfortunately, Rob gets into a car accident shortly afterward and loses his memory of the entire previous year—including Kathryn, their relationship, and apparently the most important Christmas season of his life.

Now Kathryn must recreate their romantic milestones to help Rob remember what they've lost. Think of it as a relationship reboot, except instead of resetting a password, she's trying to restore an entire boyfriend. There are dates to recreate, holiday memories to revisit, and plenty of opportunities for Kathryn to realize that maybe saying yes would have been considerably easier than staging an elaborate romantic history lesson.

Forgotten Holiday delivers everything you'd expect from Hallmark movies: charming romance, emotional misunderstandings, and a medical recovery plan that would probably raise a few eyebrows at an actual hospital. Still, it's a sweet reminder that love can survive almost anything—even a year-long memory wipe. And as Hallmark holiday movies go, forgetting Christmas is one thing, but forgetting your girlfriend? That's a holiday miracle nobody asked for.
