Christmas with Holly

I love Christmas movies and what better than a movie based on a novel by one of my favorite romance writers!  Christmas with Holly, a Hallmark Hall of Fame original movie will be televised on ABC tonight at 9pm ET/8pm Central.  (Check your local listings for time and channel)  Based on the 2010 Lisa Kleypas novel, Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor, the book tells the story of a man (Mark) struggling to raise his orphaned niece, a woman (Maggie) recovering from the loss of her husband and Holly, a little girl whose world has been torn apart by the death of her mother. These three are all due a little magic in their lives.   Who better than Lisa Kleypas and Hallmark to bring them that magic in what promises to be a charming, feel-good holiday movie.  


Find out more about Christmas with Holly here and more about the book on which it's based here.  And, if you like the movie, check out the next two books (Mark's brothers' stories) in Lisa Kleypas's Friday Harbor series:  Rainshadow Road and Dream Lake.  Read PJ's review of Rainshadow Road here.  


I know where I'll be tonight.  Will you be watching?  Are you, like me, hoping for Hallmark movies of the next two books in the Friday Harbor series?  Any thoughts on who you would cast in the roles?

What other romance novels would you like to see made into television movies?  

Because it's the season and I love giving away gifts, I have two copies of Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor and one copy of Rainshadow Road to give away today.  I'll randomly choose three winners from people leaving comments on today's blog!  

Disclaimer:  I am one of "Lisa's Divas" - a group of select fans who share info and content related to Lisa's novels and get sneak peeks and swag.  However, every review that I write, whether I purchase the book or receive an advance copy from the author or publisher, reflects my unbiased opinion.
