Review of “Christmas in Evergreen: Letters to Santa” by Nancy Naigle

Publisher Description

Return to Evergreen, the town where Christmas wishes come true… But only if you know what your heart really wants.

When Lisa takes a last-minute Christmas trip to her hometown of Evergreen, she finds that the historic general store has closed. The place was a beloved local tradition, and she decides to use her skills as a professional retail designer to bring it back to its former glory. She charms a local contractor, Kevin, into working with her, and the pair find themselves facing one surprise after another.

One of the biggest surprises of all is finding the mysterious 25-year-old letter to Santa that never made it to the North Pole. Who really wrote it, and will its request come true at last? And will Lisa and Kevin figure out what they’re truly wishing for?

This sweet small-town romance includes a free Hallmark original recipe for Incredible Apple Dumplings.

My Review:

As I write this review, it’s summer here in the Midwest and the temperatures are very warm each day.  However, I have been reading a sweet book that has me listening to Christmas music a few months early. Nancy Naigle has written another beautiful Christmas story that has me thinking all things Christmas. 

 I love the community of Evergreen and was glad to be able to return there again via this story.  Kevin and Lisa have each separately returned to the little town of Evergreen for the holidays-Kevin to spend time with his dad; Lisa to visit the town for the first time since she was a child.  Circumstances keep throwing them together, but it’s when they come together as a team to refurbish a beloved store on Main Street in Evergreen. As the people of the town join in to help restore some well-loved Christmas traditions, Kevin and Lisa must decide if their future is together in a Evergreen.  I liked both these characters and couldn’t help but hope they would find their happily-ever-after together.  The ending of the book seems to open the door for some summer weddings in Evergreen, and I’d love to read a sequel about that.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
