A Prince for Christmas

The king and queen of the European kingdom of Balemont (Maxwell Caulfield and Kelly Le Brock) arrange a marriage for their son and heir, Prince Duncan (Kirk Barker) fixing the wedding for Christmas Day, however, Duncan is dismayed and a week before the unhappy day he runs away incognito to the small town of Aurora[1] in the United States, changing his name to David. Arriving there in the snow, he goes for a meal in a diner and literally bumps into Emma (Viva Bianca) a single woman who owns and operates the business, who has just broken up with her intended, Todd (Aaron O'Connell), Emma is also responsible for looking after her teenage sister, Alice, as their parents have both died.

David dates Emma and falls in love, however, after a whirlwind romance, Emma finds out who David really is from a newspaper article about the imminent wedding of Prince Duncan to Isabelle de Montavia and she angrily sends him away. He returns home to Balemont, but persuades his parents to cancel the planned wedding, and on Christmas Eve he returns for Emma.[2]

Todd, a car salesman, remains interested in Emma. On discovering that Duncan has wooed her while about to marry Isabelle, Emma has the notable line "Two men in my life, and the honest one turns out to be the used car salesman!"
