Quite often, books get adapted into the successful films and series we fall in love with. But is that the case with The Noel Diary?

Justin Hartley is the leading man in the movie as Jake Turner, with Barrett Doss depicting his onscreen love interest, Rachel. Bonnie Bedelia, James Remar, Treat Williams, and Essence Atkins appear in the production.

Is The Noel Diary based on a book?

This Netflix movie is indeed based on a book. A novel written by author Richard Paul Evans and was released in 2017. According to Goodreads, the book is about a bestselling romance author who hasn’t been home in almost two decades since his mother, who is living with a mental illness, told him to go away. He needs to come back and settle the estate after she passes.

His mother hid so many items, including a diary left by someone named Noel. That is when we see Rachel. A woman is looking for her birth mother, and the diary may have the answers she’s looking for while bringing her closer to Jacob.

There are three other books as part of the novel series:

The Noel Stranger, Noel Street, and The Noel Letters.

So it’s possible that if this Netflix movie does well with audiences, the streaming giant may continue to tell more of the story.
