Hallmark recruits AMC alums for heartwarming Valentine's Day films

Love is in the air for All My Children alums Sam Page (ex-Trey Shepard) and Lacey Chabert (ex-Bianca Montgomery), who each have a Hallmark movie scheduled for Valentine's Day.

Valentine's Day is right around the corner, meaning it's time to stock up on chocolate, chill some Champagne, win a teddy bear or two, and... clear your schedule for some romantic Hallmark films.

Now that the feel-good network's Winterfest is winding down, it's ready to bring out the big guns for the holiday of love. And two of the movies on the schedule feature All My Children alums.

First up is The Story of Us, which follows Jamie (Maggie Lawson), a woman who becomes unnerved when she realizes that an architect of a development who has plans to change her beloved neighborhood -- which in turn threatens her bookstore -- turns out to be her first love, Sawyer (Sam Page, ex-Trey Shephard). Will old Valentines help these friends-turned-foes see eye to eye? Find out when the film makes its debut on Saturday, February 9, at 8:00 PM.

Next comes Love, Romance & Chocolate, which follows Emma (Lacey Chabert, ex-Bianca Montgomery) and Luc (Will Kemp), chocolatiers who are inspired by the romance and beauty of Bruges, Belgium, as they compete for Belgium's Royal Chocolatier. But the biggest challenge will be winning the contest without losing their hearts along the way... To find out if it's possible, be sure to catch the premiere on Saturday, February 16, at 8:00 PM.

Chabert won the hearts of daytime fans as Erica Kane's daughter, a role she played from 1992 to 1993 before going on to find fame in series like Party of Five and films like Mean Girls. She's now a staple on Hallmark, having appeared in countless films on the network.

Page starred on AMC from 2002 to 2003 as Trey, who ended up having quite the soapy background: not only was he revealed to be Kendall's (Alicia Minshew) brother via Richard Fields, the man who raped Erica Kane (Susan Lucci), but he was also revealed to be the brother of Leo (Josh Duhamel) and David (Vincent Irizarry) via their psychotic mother, Vanessa Bennett (Marj Dusay). Something tells us his The Story of Us background will be much more heartwarming than his Pine Valley roots.
