One Charmed Christmas

De: Sheila Roberts

Narrado por: Ann Marie Gideon

An enchanting new Christmas novel from USA TODAY bestselling author Sheila Roberts, brimming with hope, love and humor.

Catherine Pine is hoping her Christmas is a bit more jolly than last year’s. That one was her first without her husband, and with her kids and their families absent this year, she’s worried. But things change when her good friend invites her on a Christmas cruise to lift her spirits. Suddenly every day is an adventure and she’s making a bunch of new friends, including the lovable Sophie Miles.

It’s like a gift from Santa when Sophie and Catherine meet the charming Dr. Rudy Nichols, a perfect match for hypochondriac Sophie. But he comes with a two-legged lump of coal, his guard-dog daughter. And then there’s chocolatier Trevor March, who’s also interested in the scrumptious Sophie. Can he convince her that chocolate is the perfect cure for what ails her? Who knows what Santa has in store for these holiday travelers? Anything could happen this charmed Christmas!

These strangers who met on a cruise and made lasting friendships.

I liked the subtle romances and the camaraderie they shared. I felt like I wanted to be with them and enjoy the fun they had.

I love a multiple POV story . . .

I understand Athena. I love Catherine and Rudy together. Sophie and Harriet are annoying. Thank goodness Trevor was around to pull/pry Sophie away from Rudy. It all worked out.

4.5 stars

Fabulous!

Loved the unique story line, has even sparked the idea of maybe doing a cruise one day!

cute story but a few odd elements

the nice thing about the book is that it tells of several romances at different age groups. the book was far too long than necessary. there was also a lot of time spent on a teenager pursuing an older man, and he never really discouraged her. I found that unsettling and tried to skip past as much of that bit as possible.

“Charmed” for Sure

Sheila Roberts has a way of making life real and happy all at the same time. This story was so enjoyable. She had me experiencing life on the cruise with the characters. I could see myself falling in step with them on their tours and shopping experiences. Life was so exciting as they approached each new stop -the same as we should on our journey in life. I truly would like to experience the magic of the Christmas Markets along the Rhine. I'm sure many will enjoy this Christmas story of Sheila Roberts. Her work is never disappointing.

Light fun Christmas story

This is a light fun Christmas story. I liked that it is about mature adults with real lives and not twenty year olds. It mixes friendship, romance, site seeing, and shopping. What more could you want? I really enjoyed the part about the Christmas markets. It is different than any other Christmas book I’ve read which is good.

Very timely

This story picked me I didn’t pick it Alexa just started playing it and I took to it right away.
