It's finally starting to feel like Fall. In the mornings I wake up and it's cold out and by afternoon it's sunny and warm again. In the evenings I've been enjoying curling up on the couch with my dog Hazel and an episode or two of The Office
I haven't started listening to Christmas music yet, although that will be coming soon. Instead, I've been partaking in the reading of Christmas fiction. Today's book review of Christmas Charms by Teri Wilson was a pleasure to write because it was a wonderful story to read.It made me feel good and it helped distract me from all of the craziness going on in the world (The upcoming election, the pandemic, senseless killings). What could be better than that?
Summary (from Goodreads.com)
She never dreamed her holiday would include her hometown, a dog, or a firefighter.
But a mysterious charm bracelet predicted it all…
Ashley’s supposed to be having the Christmas of her dreams. After four years of working at an upscale jewelry store in Manhattan, she’s finally going to get a little velvet box of her own―from her boyfriend Jeremy, who’s taking her on a romantic trip to Paris. What could go wrong?
Well, everything.
Ashley heads home to Owl Lake instead, falling asleep on the train ride there…and waking up with a beautiful antique charm bracelet on her wrist. Soon, she realizes that each silver charm predicts an event that happens in real life. What does this mean for her and Jeremy…or her and Aidan, her former high school boyfriend, who’s now a local firefighter? Is there still a chance that she could have the perfect Christmas?
My Thoughts
- Owl Lake. It sounded like a really cute, snowy small town.
- Ashley's new dog, Fruitcake (because who doesn't love a romance novel with an awesome dog in it?)
- Aidan. He's Ashley's ex boyfriend and he just might be the one that got away. Ashley keeps finding herself running into him around town. He even winds up saving her a few times. He clearly doesn't trust Ashley in the beginning but as the two open up to each other over town, I felt that they made a really cute match.
- Mya, Ashley's best friend. She was super supportive and helpful to Ashley. All heroines need a helpful best friend to give them good love advice! Haha.
