    Hearts Around the Table: Jenna's First Love2025

    Ashley Newbrough came out of the gate strong. Her 2015 debut, Love Under the Stars, is still her best-reviewed at 6.8, just ahead of Small Town Christmas from 2018 on 6.7. Across 16 films through 2025 she top-bills half of them, which puts her in that comfortable zone between lead and reliable second. What sets her apart from the usual small-town crowd is geography. She turns up in the big city more than most, and she plays the whole thing straight rather than winking at the camera. She also comes with company. Kathryn Davis has shared seven films with her and Jake Epstein six, the kind of repeat pairing the network keeps reaching for. Christmas is a regular stop, seven holiday titles in all. If you like a familiar face and a winter premise, she has been steady work for a decade.
