Plot Synopsis

With her dad under the weather, Andy Lindry steps in to lead the family's Pasadena float building business, and with only one float to build this year, she knows it must be stunning for the business to survive. When executive Cliff "The Bulldozer" Baskers shows up to personally oversee the building of his company's float, the artist and the businessman quickly butt heads. Cliff plans to run the operation like a business whereas Andy, an artist with years of float design experience, knows that creativity has its own schedule and comes from the heart. They somehow manage to assemble a ragtag team of volunteers to decorate the float. Facing once setback after another, the float is in real jeopardy of being disqualified from the parade unless they can get back on track and deliver by New Year's Eve. Working side by side toward their common goal, they discover that they may have misjudged one another and an undeniable spark of romance is ignited between them. Their joy is short-lived, however, when Cliff's boss arrives on the scene and sends him packing and demands that Andy abandon her showy additions and simply deliver the no-frills float he ordered. But Cliff and Andy refuse to give up and work to deliver its greatest Rose Parade masterpiece ever.
