Nora and her husband Simon have been running an independent bookstore that Nora's deceased mother established long ago, when Nora was a child. After Simon has a health scare, Nora steps in to handle the finances of the business, hoping to minimize Simon's stress. However, she isn't sharing information with him that she has already used all the proceeds of a loan, and additionally, she is avoiding calls from the authorities looking for taxes that are past due.
As Christmas approaches, instead of doing bustling business as they'd hoped, their store is still struggling. Simon and Nora decide to ask on their website for suggestions of people in their village who need a lift in their spirits, and after they read the responses, they surprise six people with some of their favorite Christmas books. The books that they deliver, along with the bookstore's holiday party, find their targets, bringing Simon and Nora, if not a "Christmas miracle," a sweet reminder of how good it feels to give.
