Soap opera stars shine in Hallmark's Winterfest

Start the year off with the feel-good Hallmark flicks A Winter Princess, Winter Love Story, and ScowComing, starring All My Children's Natalie Hall (ex-Colby Chandler) and Days of our Lives' Jen Lilley (ex-Theresa Donovan) and Trevor Donovan (ex-Jeremy Horton), respectively.

Hallmark has been serving up a smorgasbord of holly and jolly holiday films, but the fun won't stop once the new year begins. In order to keep the (snow) ball rolling on delightful content, the network is kicking off a Winterfest filled with five new films, three of which feature soap opera stars.
