Christmas Charms by Teri Wilson is a wonderfully written festive romance, perfect for cold winter nights . This book will make you feel warm and cozy. The author's descriptive writing brings the characters and story to life, making it an extremely enjoyable read.

Thank you Teri Wilson and Hallmark publishing for letting me read this book.

This was a sweet, fun, easy read, which I devoured in just a few sittings. It has all the charm (see what I did there) of Hallmark’s ‘magical’ Christmas movies, with Ashley meeting a woman who looked just like Mrs Claus (could it have really been?), and a bracelet that seems to be making her dreams come true. Wilson has actually had a few novels adapted into Hallmark films, as well as writing books based on existing movies, and I felt like this was evident throughout this one. I could really picture it as I read, and have to admit I did get swept up in the cosy romantic vibes and Christmas magic.

In terms of tropes, this one features a terrible ex, a return home from the city, forced proximity (thanks to a snow storm) and a second chance at first love. As mentioned above, there is also a bit of unexplainable ‘is it magic?’ AND was that actually Mrs Claus. Christmas Charms doesn’t take itself too seriously, leaning right into all of those cheesy festive romance vibes, and I was here for it. I think this would be a great read for anyone who loves a Hallmark Christmas movie and has been thinking about making the jump to the same sorts of stories in books.

4.5 stars.

This was a beautiful and heart warming second chance lovers romance story! My heart is bursting out of my chest and beating to the tune of a popular Christmas song! I think out of all my Christmas reads this year, this one takes the cake. The excitement, charm, and cheer this story instills in you is beyond what I expected, and yes it is so magical! Not to mention, we have a firefighter main character who lives in a small NYC town!

The only thing I regret about this book is that I didn’t pick it up last year when I was given the ARC to do so!

For lack of better words, this book is nothing short of... charming. I loved the hometown feeling of Owl Lake and magic that came with Ashley's return. The charm bracelet magic was adorable and I enjoyed the change in the main character as the story went on. Her realization of the true meaning of Christmas. And of home. It all worked really well and the romance was lovely and spot on as well. I just wanted the happy ever after and when I finally got it, it was so nice and heart-warming. Definitely a light and fun holiday read!

Finally, I was able to sit down and read this book. Teri Wilson, always seems to provide an enjoyable read and this was no exception. Quick & easy---this romance with wonderful splashes of humor make it a magical tale.

Ashley is looking forward to Christmas in Paris with her boyfriend; but alas it doesn't go as planned and she finds herself back in her hometown of Owl Lake. Oh & did I mention a mysterious charm ends up on her wrist after falling asleep on the train? There is lots of emotion and detail in this story. Wonderful holiday tale.

I'm with many others who have asked....When is this going to be a Hallmark movie?

I am a big fan of Teri Wilson’s writing. This is the best of the best. Aidan and Ashley are meant for each other and find their happily ever after with a little Christmas magic. If Hallmark Publishing and the Hallmark Channel are smart Christmas Charms will be the Hallmark Channel’s movie headliner next Christmas.

This was such a heartwarming Christmas love story and I loved the magical charm bracelet. It was definitely a feel good read.
Many thanks to Hallmark Publishing and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

This was advertised on amazon as a Hallmark movie in the form of book and I think that pretty much sums up this book. This book will give you all the warm and Fuzzy vibes needed to get through any tough days.Ashley and Aidan are an adorable couple. It has Christmas magic sprinkled all over and am here for it. The story is quite predictive just like any feed good story usually is but nevertheless it's a lovely reading experience.I'm going to be checking her other books as well.

Christmas story with magic and love. As the name suggests, it is a charming book on second chance romance. Ashley understands her Christmas of dreams is with Aiden.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the eARC

Ashley has been working at a jewelry store for years helping others get the perfect ring for their proposal to their soul mate. When Ashley's boyfriend makes plans with her to go to Paris for the holidays, she just knows that she will get a little box of her own. Well, things don't always go as planned and all of Ashley's plans with her boyfriend go down the tubes.

Ashley decides that she is going to go home to her hometown of Owl Lake, New York for the holidays. When she meets a nice older lady on the train she is taking home, she admires the antique charm bracelet that she is wearing. This sweet old lady, Betty, ends up giving her the bracelet and tells her to have the Christmas of her dreams. Yeah right Ashley thinks. How is that possible when it has already started off this way?

Soon Ashley begins to notice that every charm on the bracelet ends up happening in real life for her. What is this going to end up meaning for her and Jeremy when she runs into her old high school boyfriend Aidan and starts to have feelings for him again? After all, he is a hunky firefighter in town now. Between you and me, Ashley should have left Jeremy when he ruined all their plans for the holidays.

This is a heartwarming story that will have you longing for Christmas time to come again soon. I love to read Christmas books all year long and to keep that Christmas spirit in the forefront of my mind with all that is going on in the world these days. Thanks to Teri Wilson and Hallmark for making that possible with this book!

I voluntarily read and reviewed this book and all opinions are my own. Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for a copy of this book!
