Description
A heartwarming love story set at Christmas time by USA Today bestselling author Nancy Naigle.
In the enchanting mountain town of Chestnut Ridge, where tree farms blanket the hillsides and the promise of a white Christmas is ever-present, a heartwarming holiday romance is about to blossom. When Sheila's best friend convinces her to help decorate a tree in the annual Christmas Tree Stroll fundraiser, she embarks on an unexpected journey of self-discovery, all wrapped in the cozy embrace of a tight-knit community. As she immerses herself in the joy of twinkling lights, hot cocoa, and the camaraderie of the townsfolk, Sheila's world begins to transform, and she finds the sense of belonging she never knew she needed.
Meanwhile, Tucker, the town's reliable fire captain, is gathering volunteers to help a family with four young children who have just lost their home to a devastating fire weeks before Christmas. Sheila offers her helping hand, and as the town rallies to support the family in their time of need, sparks of love begin to flicker between her and Tucker.
In this charming town where dreams come true, and Christmas magic is everywhere, come along for a tale of love, community, and the true spirit of the season.

Oh Nancy, you did it again! It’s always a pleasure to read one of your books.
Never one to disappoint, Nancy takes us back to Chestnut Ridge Virginia to pay a visit to Ms Orene, Natalie and Randy. This time Sheila decides to pay her best friend, Natalie a visit for the holidays. Sheila gets exposed to all of the holiday magic of the small mountain town. She makes an instant connection with the local fire chief Tucker Donovan. Nancy Naigle did an amazing job with her vivid descriptions of the sights, sounds, smells and feel of the holidays. I felt like I was right there walking the streets with the characters. I actually found myself doing a little research today to see if the little towns over the border of Virginia actually celebrate the holidays like they do in Chestnut Ridge.
Always a pleasure to read one of her books.
I’ve been a fan of Nancy Naigle’s books for several years, so it was a pleasure reading Christmas in Chestnut Ridge. It’s a lovely, heartwarming story of two people finding each other at the most wonderful time of the year.
Workaholic Sheila is invited by her BFF to Chestnut Ridge for the annual Christmas Tree Stroll fundraiser. As she is immersed in all things Christmas, Sheila begins taking stock of her life and reevaluating what really matters most.
Tucker, the fire chief, rallies the townspeople to help a family devastated by a house fire. Sheila offers to help, and she and Tucker begin working closely together…and developing feelings for each other. But what will happen when the holidays are over and Sheila returns home?
This truly was a lovely read, and the author did not let me down. She writes beautiful and heartwarming Christmas stories. I was totally immersed in the spirit of the holidays in this book. It encompasses my most favorite essentials to a great read: small town, Christmas, romance, great characters, and it makes me want to move to Chestnut Ridge.
Thank you to St. Martins Press and Netgalley for allowing me to read an advanced copy.
