Days of Our Lives spoilers and updates tease that Jen Lilley (former Theresa Donovan) has authored and released a self-help book, plus she’s starring in a new Christmas movie. Keep reading to see all the details, where to watch the movie and where to buy the book.
The Movie Is Titled “A ChrisMystery” And The Book “Wake Up Your Faith”
Jen Lilley, the daytime star who has taken on various roles throughout her career, is embarking on two new ventures. The actress is featured in the Vision Films movie, A Chrismystery, and has also published her debut book, Wake Up Your Faith. She is known for her role as Theresa Donovan on Days of our Lives and her temporary portrayal of Maxie Jones on General Hospital.
Plus, Lilley has enjoyed numerous leading roles in Hallmark Channel and Great American Family productions over the years, including the festive favorites The Spirit of Christmas and A Paris Christmas Waltz. In this latest project, she not only stars but also produces A ChrisMystery, a quirky romantic dramedy set for VOD release on November 4.
So What Is The Movie About?
Shot in picturesque locations like Savannah, GA, and St. Joseph, MO, the film blends humor with a touch of mystery, ensuring that viewers will be kept on their toes as the story unfolds.
In A ChrisMystery, Lilley takes on the role of Annie, a city police officer who hesitantly returns to her hometown with her daughter to accept the deputy sheriff position.
Despite her resolve to leave, when the town’s Christmas tree, lights, and decorations mysteriously vanish, she becomes determined to crack the case, where every resident is a potential suspect.
As she works to solve the holiday enigma alongside the charming sheriff (Tom, played by Cody Mayo), she might just find that love is the greatest gift of all.
Lilley Loves That The Movie Finds Humor In The Midst Of Chaos
“I truly appreciate how A Chrismystery manages to find humor amidst the chaos,” Lilley expresses. “It serves as a beautiful reminder that even when our lives resemble anything but a Hallmark movie.
With no picture-perfect tree and no cookie-cutter town in sight- hope, love, and laughter still manage to emerge from the disorder.
This is precisely what makes this story so relatable… and undeniably hilarious”. A Chrismystery is set to be released on major Transactional VOD platforms across the US and Canada on November 4, 2025, and can be pre-ordered on iTunes/Apple TV (US, CA) and Vudu/Fandango.
What’s Jen’s New Book About?
Alongside her impressive performance in the previously mentioned film, Lilley has ventured into the literary world as an author with her new book, Wake Up Your Faith.
Built upon a solid foundation of scripture, this devotional provides readers with profound biblical insights and engaging action steps designed to help you rekindle your faith and embrace the promises that God has made.
The official launch date is set for November 4, and it has already achieved the remarkable status of being the number one new release in the spiritual self-help category on Amazon.
Lilley expressed her hopes for the book on Instagram, stating, “In a world full of truth seekers, I pray this book helps many find what (and Who) they’ve been searching for all along.” For those eager to get their hands on a copy, pre-orders are available on Amazon.
