About the Show

Passionate about self-care and self-improvement, wellness expert Juliet wants to self-improve herself into a promotion but first she must come up with the next ‘big’ product in wellness. After wandering into a beautiful boutique candle store, she pitches ‘memory’ candles which smell like the all the Christmas memories you love. Juliet’s boss love the idea and give her ten days to create samples and full branding. If they like it, the promotion is hers. Juliet approaches Tom, a candle maker and owner of the boutique candle shop but he refuses. He's not a snake oil salesman and he thinks the wellness industry does more harm than good! Juliet needs scented candles in a hurry so she leaves him her card in case he changes his mind. That evening, Tom’s mom tells him she can’t afford to fly in for Christmas this year. His daughter is upset as it will be the first Christmas apart from her grandmother. Tom tells her he will make it special, just the two of them, but it’s clear she is still upset. Wanting to make Christmas perfect for his daughter, he calls Juliet and agrees to take part in her project. Things are rocky as they develop the scents and make the candles but as they connect, they realize they have more in common than they would have ever thought.
