Hallmark Turns February Into a Full-Blown Romance Marathon
Hallmark’s Loveuary has quickly become a fan-favorite tradition. The 2026 lineup leans hard into what the network does best: emotionally driven love stories anchored by familiar faces.
Daytime TV loyalists have a lot to look forward to, with major alumni from The Bold and the Beautiful and Days of Our Lives front and center.
Unlike the festive frenzy of Countdown to Christmas, Loveuary thrives on quieter, more intimate storytelling. These films focus on missed connections and second chances—the kind of slow-burn romance that just fits Valentine’s season.
Why Loveuary 2026 Feels Bigger Than Ever
This year’s lineup stands out for its balance of nostalgia and freshness. Hallmark favorites are paired with new premises that spark curiosity, but still deliver the emotional payoff fans crave.
Kim Matula and Aaron O’Connell Spark in The Way to You
Kicking off Loveuary 2026 is The Way to You, premiering Saturday, February 7 at 8 p.m. EST. This one leans into the classic Hallmark trope of destiny interrupted, but gives it a modern urban twist.
Kim Matula, best known as the original Hope Logan on The Bold and the Beautiful, stars opposite Aaron O’Connell. They play strangers who meet during a subway blackout and share a genuine connection—only for fate to pull them apart before they can swap details.
Kim Matula’s Hallmark Era Continues
Matula’s become one of Hallmark’s most reliable leading ladies, with past projects like Ghost of Christmas and The Finish Line. Her casting here feels like a statement—Loveuary is for actors who can sell emotional authenticity without overplaying it.
Outside Hallmark, Matula’s career is also taking off. She’s set to appear in season two of the Netflix hit The Hunting Wives, a much edgier project that highlights her versatility.
Alison Sweeney Brings Heart and Hope to the Ranch
Few actors embody Hallmark’s brand quite like Alison Sweeney. Her Loveuary entry, Romance at Hope Ranch, is classic Hallmark through and through.
Premiering Saturday, February 28 at 8 p.m. EST, the film blends ambition, healing, and romance, all set against the scenic backdrop of Ruidoso, New Mexico.
Sweeney plays Hope Morgan, a woman determined to run her own ranch. It’s a role that fits Sweeney’s Hallmark persona—strong, compassionate, and quietly inspiring.
A Special Treat for Hannah Swensen Fans
Gabriel Hogan’s appearance adds another reason to tune in, especially for fans of the Hannah Swensen Mysteries. His inclusion feels like a nod to loyal viewers who’ve followed Sweeney’s Hallmark journey for years.
Sweeney’s continued presence on the network, from starring roles to her recent guest judge spot on Finding Mr. Christmas, keeps her status as one of Hallmark’s most trusted stars intact.
Valentine’s Day Gets Playful With Because of Cupid
No Loveuary would be complete without a Valentine’s Day premiere. 2026 delivers with Because of Cupid, airing Saturday, February 14 at 8 p.m. EST.
This film injects humor and whimsy into the lineup, offering a lighter counterbalance to the more earnest love stories.
Amy Groening and Evan Roderick star as best friends who enter a Valentine’s Day mocktail competition. Things get interesting when a love potion enters the mix, blurring the lines between friendship and romance.
Why This One Could Be the Sleeper Hit
Groening became a familiar face during Hallmark’s 2024 Countdown to Christmas, while Roderick showed his range in the limited series Providence Falls. Together, they bring just enough spark to make this playful premise feel grounded.
- Friends-to-lovers trope with a magical twist
- Perfect Valentine’s Day viewing
- Lighthearted competition setting
Cosmic Romance in The Stars Between Us
Wrapping up Loveuary 2026 is The Stars Between Us, starring Sarah Drew and Matt Long. This film leans into fate and timing—two themes Hallmark viewers never seem to get tired of.
Drew plays Kim, a reporter who once shared a meaningful connection with a stranger during an eclipse. When her job sends her back to Illinois for another eclipse event, the universe steps in, and the two cross paths again.
Matt Long’s Long-Awaited Hallmark Return
Matt Long’s return is a big draw for fans. His last Hallmark appearance was in the 2019 film Christmas Joy, so this comeback adds a layer of anticipation.
Paired with Drew’s emotional depth, the film promises a blend of wonder and heartfelt storytelling.
The Big Takeaway for Viewers
For longtime fans, Loveuary 2026 feels like a reward. Familiar faces show up, the themes are cozy, and those perfectly timed premieres somehow make February feel a little brighter.
Maybe you’re here for a dose of soap star nostalgia. Or maybe you just want that Valentine’s Day escape, or a reason to root for love again. Hallmark’s Loveuary 2026 lineup? It’s romance, all month, just like you’d hope.
