Reviews for Christmas in Evergreen
17 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Allie Shaw is the town Veterinarian who is planning to leave Evergreen, Vermont and moving to Washington DC for a new experience. She also plans to see if her on again/off again relationship with Spencer is something she wants to pursue. The closer the time comes for this move to happen, the more Allie has second thoughts, especially about spending Christmas somewhere else besides Evergreen. As she says good-bye to her parents at the Chris Kringle Kitchen whey own, she gives the magic snow globe a shake. It is said that it will grant the wish if it is truly your heart's desire. As the story progresses, Allie crosses paths several times with widower Ryan Bellamy, a physician, and his young daughter Zoe. There is an unmistakable connection from the start, but as they are both leaving, the unexpected ways that they continue to meet one another is so unpredictable, you do not know where they will end up.
When I requested this novel, I did not realize it was based on a Hallmark movie, but because I love Nancy Naigle's Christmas stories. Even though I had seen the movie last Christmas, I still enjoyed the book. Christmas romance is one of the things I love about the season and this book did not disappoint. The story is full of wonder, magic, friendships, small town delights, children, festivals, Christmas and romance. With each of the main characters making their separate wishes on the snow globe, the mesh of their wishes shows the wisdom of fate and that the heart often understands what one needs well before the mind catches up. The appearance of Nick (St. Nick?) adds some of that whimsy needed in these stories. I truly enjoyed this book and look forward to watching the movie again this Christmas.I rated this book 4.5 stars, but rounded it up to five. I recommend this book to anyone who loves magical Christmas stories, romance or small town stories with happy endings. Hallmark Publishing generously provided me with a copy of this book. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great heart warming Christmas story. Ryan lost his wife a year ago, right before Christmas. He thought he’d make it easier on his daughter by taking a cruise at Christmas to try to hold the sad memories away. Allie is leaving Evergreen & her vet practice to move to Washington & a place in a larger practice. The weather is making it impossible for them to catch their flights. Or does Zoe’s wish on the magical snow globe have anything to do with it?This book was written after the Hallmark movie was made so fans of the movie could revisit it whenever they want. It reminds the reader of the Christmas season & the wonder of it all. Couple with a good romance & several memorable characters, this was an enjoyable read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5“Christmas in Evergreen” tells the story of wishes coming true. While Allie Shaw plans to move her home and her veterinary practice from the small town of Evergreen to Washington D.C., other plans seem to be in store for her. A series of unusual events brings her into contact with widower Dr. Ryan Bellamy and his daughter Zoe. The story skillfully weaves their lives into the life of the town of Evergreen, and of course is full of holiday surprises for quite a few people.This was just a “feel good” story for a traditional Christmas, with a “happily ever after” ending. Perfect for sharing as a family, with a cup of hot cocoa and Christmas cookies.I received this book from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed here are entirely my own.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I held off on watching the Hallmark movie version until I finished listening to this and I must say; this is certainly the kind story that Hallmark would showcase. It's cheesy, sappy, dripping with holiday cheer, and so PG that you could read this to a child. Evergreen is the kind of town you don't believe is real until you see it. Steeped with holiday traditions and small town charm; everyone knows and loves each other and the Christmas Festival is the highlight of every year. Allie runs a successful vet practice but she has decided to move out to DC to try her hand in the city and be with her ex boyfriend. Ryan is trying to have the best Christmas possible for his eight year old daughter since his wife has passed. He thinks a holiday cruise will solve their problems but on the way to the airport they stumble across Evergreen and his daughter is enchanted. Once they cross paths with Allie (who is also headed to the airport) all bets are off. Will this be a Christmas miracle or a Christmas nightmare. Cheesy, so predictable, and good fun. This has Hallmark stamped all over it!
