Product Description:
When I wrote my first novel, The Christmas Box, I never imagined it would become an international bestseller. It was a story for my two (then) little girls. But as I wrote, I realized that it was also for my mother -- to ease her pain over losing a child. My mother was my staunchest supporter and my biggest fan. A receptionist at a doctor's office, she would sell my book (sometimes by the case!) to patients in the waiting room. When The Christmas Box hit #1 on the New York Times bestseller list, no one, including me, was more excited than my mother.
I lost my mother on Valentine's Day of 2006. After weeks of struggling with my grief, I decided I would write a story for her. As she loved Christmas, I chose to write a Christmas novel, my first since The Christmas Box.
Finding Noel is about how people come into our lives for a reason. It is a love story about Macy and Mark, two young people from different worlds.
I'm sorry that this Christmas, for the first time since I became a writer, I won't be able to present my mother with a copy of my book. I think she would have enjoyed reading it. But, then again, I'm not certain that she hasn't.
As you read Finding Noel, I hope that you enjoy the journey and feel the same powerful emotions I felt as the story came to me.
Fondly,
Richard Evans

I really, really liked this book. Other than that, I am speechless because the feelings it invoked are so personal. I placed it on my "all-time-favorites" shelf. I will definitely be reading more by this author.

This book touched my heart and soul in so many ways. The characters were so believable and relatable. I couldn't put it down, despite that fact that I was overcome with emotion at various times throughout the book. It was one of those books that kept me thinking about the characters long after I finished it. The book is narrated by a young man. Each chapter opens with a brief entry from his diary. A few of my favorite entries are:
* "Usually life's greatest gifts come wrapped in adversity." ... Read More

I totally enjoyed this book. I read it over Christmas and although I had to read it intermittently during all of the busy festivities, I looked forward to getting back into it. SWEET storyline yet not too mushy. Very nice book!

I found myself contemplating with the story, it seem fiction or maybe not, the character and the detail is almost unreal but in reality it could happen to anybody. The plans is to read few chapter to ease the boredness of the evening and to make my eyes tire until i fall to sleep instead, it's daunt me to finish the book in one reading even to the deep of the night. It's a beautiful story, intelligently told and well verse.
this is my second book from Mr Evans, the first one is the "The Christmas ... Read More

This is a beutiful story that conveys the true meaning of Christmas. Though it shows the ups and downs of life, it has a theme of "everything happens for a reason". It is a nice, quick read and more like a novelette. Enjoyed it!
