A Boyfriend for Christmas is a romantic movie that tells the heartwarming story of a woman named Holly Grant (Kelli Williams) who, as a little girl, asked Santa Claus for a boyfriend for Christmas. Now all grown up, Holly - still single - reunites with Santa during the holiday season, and the old man reminds her of the Christmas wish she made as a child.
At first, Holly dismisses the idea of Santa being the real deal, but when he goes on to tell her that he's been working on her wish for years, she starts to wonder if there's any truth to his claims. Santa leaves Holly with a promise that she would get her wish for Christmas, and very soon, things start to happen.
Holly receives a present which she has no idea about, and when she goes to return it to the sender, she meets a man named Ryan Hughes (Patrick Muldoon). Ryan is charming, handsome, and everything Holly could want in a man. The two hit it off and, before she knows it, Holly begins to believe that Ryan has been sent to her by Santa.
Things seem to be going great, but Holly later discovers that Ryan is actually a lawyer who was hired by her boss to be her boyfriend for the Christmas season. This revelation leads to a heap of confusion for Holly - should she continue with the fake boyfriend set up by her boss, or should she follow her heart and pursue a relationship with Ryan, even if his feelings aren't the same?
Throughout the movie, Holly gets to know Ryan, and as she does, she discovers that his affection for her is growing. Ryan finds himself drawn to Holly's kindness, generosity, and spirit of the season. He also quickly learns about Holly's childhood Christmas wish and sets out to make it come true.
As Christmas nears, Holly becomes more and more convinced that Ryan is the boyfriend she's been wishing for all these years, but that doesn't make the fake boyfriend set up by her boss go away. Will Holly give up her chance at love, or will she follow her heart and take a shot at a real relationship with Ryan?
