The story focuses on Samara (Fish), “a former lawyer now event planner,” who reconnects with Nate (Lissing), “her ex‑coworker and rival,” according to Hallmark. The two end up having to work together in order “to plan a couple’s anniversary in Queensland and begin to confront their past.” At the same time, they begin to “fall for each other.”

If you see the smooch (above), then you’ll understand why it could definitely be chosen as the best lip-lock of the year. In fact, it might be among the best Hallmark kisses of all time.
