One Charmed Christmas

 In Sheila Roberts's One Charmed Christmas, this beautiful holiday romance is about life, love, and taking a chance on happiness for two different couples. For Catherine Pine, she wasn't looking forward to another Christmas alone since her husband died the year before. Her children was too busy with their own lives, and she dealt with a health crisis of her own--treating her recent cancer diagnosis in the new year. But with her best friend Denise's encouragement, she joins her on a holiday cruise trip to Germany. For Sophie Miles, she's a hypochrondiac  and a bit of a germophobe. But when her brother-in-law bails out of their cruise, she joins her sister Sierra on a the cruise of a lifetime. From there, Catherine and Sophie's lives are intersected on a charming cruise trip into Western Europe as they become cruise mates and later friends, while they dealt with obstacles along the way. But on one charming and enchanted cruise, it changed their lives forever when they've both found true love and potential soul mates with the men of their dreams for a happily ever after.

 This was a wonderful holiday Christmas contemporary romance that pulls at your heart strings and tugs it real hard. I really loved the German cruise trip during the holiday season, which was more than magical and a special memory to remember forever. I loved the various scenic settings in and around the Rhine River in various German locations and also on the cruise itself. I cared for Catherine on how she needed to make the most of the trip with her best friend and making new memories and new friends of their own during that one special week. Besides her health issues, I'm glad she had a fabulous time on the cruise and did something for herself. I also cared for Sophie, who was in good hands with Trevor, the chocolatier, who had a way of words and to uplift people's spirits. The theme of the story is everyone deserves to have a second chance for happiness or to find something they've always been looking for, which might be right under their noses.

If you love heart-warming holiday romances and Hallmark movies with lots of charming drama, plenty of suspense, non-stop action on and off the cruises, and plenty of hopeful sparks of intrigue, One Charmed Christmas will be a gift for you.
