Summer is almost here, and Hallmark Channel is getting ready for a new season with a fresh batch of original movies.
The network’s “Summer Nights” event kicks off on June 5 with the premiere of You Had Me at Aloha. Three more movies will air later in the month. Plus, crime buffs can look forward to new movies on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries as well, including a new Aurora Teagarden mystery with Candace Cameron Bure.
‘You Had Me at Aloha’ premieres June 5 on Hallmark Channel
When Calls the Heart stars Pascale Hutton and Kavan Smith reunite in Hawaii in You Had Me at Aloha. In this island-set romance, Hutton plays Paige, a travel blogger whom she describes as the “exact opposite” of her character on When Calls the Heart (via YouTube).
When the host of a popular travel show resigns, Paige is asked to step in. The only catch? She has to co-host with the boundary-pushing Ben (Smith). While Ben and Paige initially clash over their differing ideas for the show, they eventually discover they balance each other, both onscreen and off.
You Had Me at Aloha airs Saturday, June 5 at 9 p.m. ET.
‘The Baker’s Son’ premieres June 12
Eloise Mumford and Brant Daugherty star in The Baker’s Son. Daugherty plays Matt, a baker on the small island of Windward who falls in love with a visiting ballet dancer. His passion for the dancer somehow finds its way into his bread, taking it from bland to delicious. But when the dancer leaves, the heartbroken Matt’s bread loses its flavor. The residents of Windward quickly start searching for a new muse for their baker, but everyone overlooks Annie (Mumford), Matt’s best friend and the owner of the local café.
The Baker’s Son premieres Saturday, June 12 at 9 p.m. ET.
