Keep reading to find out what you can expect from “The Story of Us,” their new Valentine’s Day Hallmark flick.

“Jamie Vaughn (Lawson) is a small-town bookstore owner in Oregon who learns her cherished store, True Love Books and Café, along with several other struggling local businesses, face a forced buyout with permanent closure,” the synopsis reveals. “Leading the charge is Sawyer O’Dell (Page), lead architect for a powerful property developer – and Jamie’s former flame – who plans to revamp the district with more modern, upscale and profitable businesses, but with a catch.”

The synopsis continues: “Because Sawyer is a local boy, he is tasked with returning to Waterford to talk with and convince all the business owners to embrace their vision and sign deals agreeing to sell. If he succeeds, Sawyer will be rewarded a permanent position for Sawyer in the firm. His return jolts Jamie’s world as her past feelings for him come rushing back and is soon crushed to learn he is at the helm of the deal.”

She decides she has to do whatever she can to save her bookstore, so Jamie comes up with a plan to do just that. Plus, as Valentine’s Day approaches, she realizes she needs to figure out her feeling for Sawyer, especially when her more recent boyfriend, Matt (Jacob Richter, “Legends of Tomorrow”), comes back to town.

Find out what happens when “The Story of Us” premieres on Hallmark Channel on Saturday at 8 p.m. EST.
