Romance expert, Joanna Moret (Chelsea Kane), has developed a strategy for ending holiday loneliness and it's all detailed in her best-selling book. After appearing on a morning show she is offered the biggest opportunity of her career--to throw the MacAllen Holiday Gala--and if all goes well she'll get her own TV show. Little does anyone know, she is newly single and can't seem to apply her principles to her own love life. Joanna asks the morning show producer, Ted (Drew Seeley), to pretend they are a couple or risk being exposed as a fraud. When Ted agrees, she never expects to find herself falling for him. Upon arrival at the mansion, however, the handsome Del MacAllen (Chad Connell) takes an interest in Joanna and Ted's ex-girlfriend shows up to win him back. Suddenly she finds herself in the middle of a bizarre holiday love triangle. Will she be able to throw the best party of the year and still convince everyone she is the expert on love or will she lose everything?

Two Thumbs Up!!
I thought this movie was great. It's a made you feel good movie that isn't boring. I loved this movie so much that I bought it when it became available on DVD. A must watch movie for the Christmas Holidays.

Very Charming.
I found this Hallmark film very entertaining. Was on my wishlist. So when it became available I ordered it. A fun story- line and good acting. I like my Christmas Hallmark movies. This film follows the basic outline that Hallmark uses for it's Holiday movie. Yet there are some little changes that makes this movie different. This DVD is worth owning.

No trouble playing on my U.S. DVD/Blu-Ray player!
Bit of a 'unicorn' here, I'm told: a guy who genuinely enjoys and seeks out Christmas (and other seasons') rom-coms/dramedies."Christmas by the Book" is a charming holiday story, wittily told, featuring an enchanting lead actress. But you probably already knew all of that...The primary reason I'm leaving a review is to let others know that, despite the warning in this item's text suggesting that the DVD in question will likely not play on North America DVD players, my U.S. Sony DVD/Blu-Ray player had absolutely no problem playing it. While of course I can't guarantee your experience will be identical, I can't see why it would differ. I suspect this DVD is actually "Region Free" or "All Regions" compatible, despite the "Region 4" designation on the back of the case. The evidence strongly suggests otherwise.
