ALISON SWEENEY DISCUSSES TWO NEW HALLMARK MOVIES - SUGAR and VICE: A HANNAH SWENSEN MYSTERY AND ROMANCE AT HOPE RANCH

She’s back!! ALISON SWEENEY leads two all-new, original Hallmark Channel Movies on consecutive weekends and stars opposite her real-life daughter in one!

Romance at Hope Ranch was shot on location in New Mexico and features Megan Sanov, Sweeney’s real-life daughter.

With her daughter starting college, Hope Morgan (Sweeney) sets out to begin a new chapter of her life—fulfilling her childhood dream of running a ranch in the picturesque town of Ruidoso, New Mexico and reviving the beloved Giddy Up Gala, a tradition she’s determined to bring back. But her fresh start at Hope Ranch quickly turns into a whirlwind of challenges.

Sugar and Vice: A Hannah Swensen Mystery is the eighth installment of the fan-favorite movies, also starring Victor Webster (Workin’ MomsThe Wedding Veil Journey) and Barbara Niven (NCISChesapeake Shores). When Lake Eden’s beloved baker Hannah Swensen agrees to cater desserts for the grand masquerade at the newly renovated hotel, she expects an evening of glamour—not a chilling murder.

Alison Sweeney is an award-winning actress, writer, producer, director, content supplier and TV host who constantly inspires her almost 2 million social media followers with her balance of career with her focus on family, health and wellness. 

The multi-hyphen talent is a star, executive producer, and frequent writer of romantic  comedies and murder mystery movies for the Hallmark Channel. She has appeared in more than 30 films for the network, including over 10 installments of the popular Hannah Swensen series, based on Joanne Fluke’s bestselling books.

Romance at Hope Ranch Premieres Saturday, February 28th at 8pm ET/PT on Hallmark Channel and on W Network in Canada

Sugar and Vice: A Hannah Swensen Mystery Premieres Saturday, March 7th at 8pm ET/PT

I had the opportunity to chat with Alison about both projects and always feeling welcome when she heads back to Salem to play the beloved Sami on the hit daytime soap, Days of Her Lives.
