Former figure skating champion, Emily James, now 27 years old and considered a relic in the world of figure skating, gets an improbable shot to reclaim skating glory when a young coach sees greatness in her. Together, they find their love of skating goes far beyond the ice.

A ROYAL WINTER - Saturday, January 14, 9 p.m. ET/PT

Stars: Merritt Patterson ("The Royals"), Jack Donnelly ("Atlantis")

While on a last-minute European holiday, a young woman finds herself in the middle of a real-life fairy tale when a chance meeting with a handsome local leads to something more. However, things get complicated when she learns that the "local" is actually a prince who is about to be crowned King, and whose mother is dead-set against her royal son's romance with the tourist.

BIRTHDAY WISH - Saturday, January 21, 9 p.m. ET/PT

Stars: Jessy Schram ("Falling Skies"), Luke Macfarlane ("Brothers & Sisters")

With her thirtieth birthday approaching, Gwen Turner (Schram), a young TV commercial director who plans every detail of her life, hopes her boyfriend, Alex Stone, will finally propose and fulfill her goal of being engaged by the time she's thirty. Gwen meets Dave McKinley (Macfarlane), a charming commercial director with a spontaneous approach to life, when an upscale ad agency pairs them to work together. When Alex does not propose, a disappointed Gwen makes a birthday wish: to see what her life will look like in ten years. The next morning, her wish miraculously comes true when she sees a vision of her future in which she is a happily married mom. But to her surprise, the man she's married to in her vision is Dave, not Alex.
