"Christmas Charms is about finding the magic that's been with you

Ashley and frantically turning pages to see what her hometown of Owl
Lake has in store for her. A lovely Christmas treat!" -USA Today bestselling author Jenny Hale
MY REVIEW: With a jingle, a jangle, a silvery tinkle, and a sprinkle of holiday magic, author Teri Wilson offers readers a yuletide treat in "Christmas Charms", a heartwarming contemporary romance. Ashley James is living the dream life in Manhattan--a far cry from her small hometown of Owl Lake in upstate New York. Working at elite Windsor Jewelers, sharing an apartment with her friend and coworker, Maya, and dating handsome Jeremy--who also works at Windsor's--what more could a girl want? A few things about her relationship with Jeremy niggle at Ashley, but with their upcoming holiday trip to Paris to see his family, and the expectation of a proposal, Ashley puts her doubts aside. However, when things go wrong, and there is no engagement, and no trip to Paris, Ashley heads back home for the first time in a long, long time. On the train ride to Owl Lake, Ashley meets Betty, a kindly older lady with busy knitting needles
and a fascinating charm bracelet. Ashley dozes off, and when she awakes at the train station, Betty is gone, but she has gifted Ashley with a hand-knit Christmas stocking containing the charm bracelet. Ashley's parents are happily surprised to see her, but mysterious things begin to happen connected to each of the charms on the bracelet--including a lovable dog who "adopts" Ashley. Then there's Aidan Flynn--handsome firefighter and Ashley's former sweetheart. Ashley had broken Aidan's heart when she turned down his early marriage proposal and moved to the "big city". It's now ten years later, and the feelings between them are still there, but have too many changes occurred, and has too much time gone by for them to find a happy second chance together? If you love captivating contemporary holiday romance that tugs at your heart and makes you believe in the magic of the season, then you will greatly enjoy "Christmas Charms" from talented storyteller Teri Wilson.
