Lacey Chabert Stars in Original Hallmark Channel Movie MOONLIGHT IN VERMONT, 4/8

Lacey Chabert ("Party of Five," "Baby Daddy") and Carlo Marks ("Chesapeake Shores," "Pretty Little Liars") star in Hallmark Channel's MOONLIGHT IN VERMONT, a Hallmark CHANNEL Original Movie premiering Saturday, April 8, 9 p.m. ET/PT. "Moonlight in Vermont" is part of Hallmark Channel's Spring Fling programming event, featuring movies celebrating the season and springtime romance.

After fast-paced New York City high-end real estate broker Fiona Rangely (Lacey Chabert) gets dumped by her boyfriend, she escapes to her family's quaint Vermont Inn for a few days to slow down and evaluate her life. When her ex-boyfriend Nate shows up at the Inn with a brand new girlfriend, Fiona quickly devises a plan to win him back: pretend the handsome and very laid-back head chef Derek (Carlo Marks) is her new boyfriend! Much to the surprise of Derek -- and to Fiona herself -- in pretending to be in love, Fiona realizes she's been thrown a curveball: her busy and scheduled life may not be what she really wants, discovering that sometimes the best things in life can't be rushed and are worth the wait.

"Moonlight in Vermont" is a Crown Media production. Beth Grossbard is executive producer. Harvey Kahn is producer. Mel Damski directed the movie. Teleplay by Michael Nourse, Brian Sawyer & Gregg Rossen. Story by Angela Ruhinda.
