From mishaps with the Turlingtons' and the tale of a young Dave's first holiday disaster in "Christmas in the Narrows," to the surprising "Christmas Ferret" and the touching sign off in "The Christmas Card," these stories are filled with humour (often at Dave's expense), and remind us what the holidays are all about.

He would like to see everything just burned, but curiosity about his past and anxiety about his future fuels him to make the drive from Salt Lake City to her home in Oregon. Maybe cleaning out her house will be slightly less depressing than spending the holidays alone. While going through her things Jason comes upon her diary and the record of his childhood.

The only clue he has to the woman's identity is her name: Noel, which is an eerily fitting discovery on Christmas Eve. As Jason reads the diary he begins to uncover the source of his pain in relationships and understand that what he believed to be the truth of his past was actually a lie. That's when he begins a journey to find Noel, wondering if she might hold the truth he needs to bring him peace and love. Bestseller. 2017.By Richard Paul Evans. 2014
