Marks Rachael Leigh Cook's first writing credit after an over two decades long acting career. She had the idea for the story years prior and pitched it to The Hallmark Channel with executive producer Jim Head in the summer of 2017 and the film was shooting by November of that year.
Director Scott Smith's second film in a row to star and be executive produced by Rachael Leigh Cook, after Autumn in the Vineyard (2016). Both films were produced for The Hallmark Channel.
In the movie, Adam and Mary mention The Adventures of Tom Sawyer as one of their favorite books. This may be a nod to the fact that Rachael Leigh Cook starred as Becky Thatcher in an adaptation of the book, Tom and Huck (1995), in one of her very first roles.
Aired as the second of four original films in The Hallmark Channel's 2018 "Winterfest" lineup.
The hockey arena where the kids' team practices about half way through the movie has a "Prospera Center" sign, and is supposed to be located near Denver, Colorado. The actual arena was called the Prospera Centre (notice the spelling change) when the movie was filmed, and is in Chilliwack, British Columbia. It's now the "Chilliwack Coliseum". So Hallmark's attention to detail was just to Americanize "centre".
