Based loosely on the story of the Christmas ceasefire during WW1.
In the winter of 1915, the English and the German soldiers made an agreement on the bloody Western front: For the observance of the holidays, there will be no war on Christmas Eve or Christmas. During the treaty, the two sides joined together in songs and carols, and celebrated the birth of their Lord. They temporarily became friends. They ate together and reportedly exchanged gifts. Surprisingly, there was even a soccer match between the sides.
This short story briefly the Christmas truce through the fictitious German soldier William Schulz. This lively and brave young man makes the feuding enemies forget about the war when sings a peaceful Christmas song.
All of this story was inspired by the song "Christmas 1915", sung by Celtic Thunder, but originally written by Jerry Lynch.

The Santa Clause: A Calvin Christmas [Book 1]
It's a Calvin Christmas like no other - singing carols, reading 'Twas The Night Before Christmas, and Scott burning the turkey. Yep, your typical Christmas at the Calvin household. ...Or so they thought! Annabelle Calvin, or 'Bell' for short, just turned 16 and finally gets to live with her dad, Scott Calvin, after her parents divorce. Just when she was having a Christmas movie marathon with her best friend Holly Clementine, they hear a loud thump from the roof. When they go to investigate what it was with Annabelle's younger brother Charlie, they see something they thought was only in their imagination. Suddenly, they are taken to the North Pole by none other than Santa's very own reindeers and sleigh. Once they arrive at the North Pole, they are greeted by Bernard, Head Elf No.1, and his younger brother Luke, Head Elf No.2, who tell them that Scott officially became the new Santa Claus as soon as he put on the suit. Join Annabelle and Holly as they both try to convince Scott to accept his role as the new Santa Claus, while trying not to risk having therapy sessions with Dr. 'I-Got-My-PhD-Out-Of-A-Cereal-Box', discovering romance along the way, and slowly come to terms with what their hearts really want. Also...did I mention they have the power to bring the holiday spirit to everyone around them?

Mechanics and Mistletoe
Bella, an uptight, cold executive, is on her way home for Christmas. The first Christmas she's been home since she started working for the Fortune 500 company that hired her from college, almost ten years ago. The only reason why she's going home is to meet her brother's new wife and her parents threatened to cut her out of the will if she didn't make time to see her family. However, it's snowing, a blizzard and Bella's car wasn't really designed for the cold. Or snow. Or anything other than sunny, perfect weather. Edward Cullen is alone on Christmas Eve, working, as usual. His family was long gone and all he had left was his family business, Cullen Towing Service and Garage, though that wasn't going well for him. Business was slow. His bills were piling up and he was afraid he was going to lose his livelihood if something didn't turn around. Over the radio, he heard about a stranded driver, stuck on the back road. Edward pulled on his winter coat, gloves and started his truck, driving to the location. A small sports car was stuck in a ditch, almost completely covered with snow. A beautiful woman, wearing heels and a fur coat was shivering outside her car. Edward immediately recognized her as the girl he once knew and had secretly crushed on for years. Her brother, Jasper, pretty told him to fuck off and said that she was too good for him, a grease-monkey, a blue-collar boy. Can this uptown girl fall for a guy with grease on his hands?Terminé![Holly Garland on Santa's Lap [COMPLETE]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/378304110-256-k524536.jpg)
Holly Garland on Santa's Lap [COMPLETE]
Once upon a time, I was your typical good girl, doing my job like a total elf star, no complaints. Even with the little "gift" I was born with (aka my disability), I handled life pretty well. But let me tell you, luck's never been my plus-one. What am I talking about? Oh, just my lovely name-and the Christmas curse that comes with it! Every year, without fail, while my family's out decking the halls, I'm over here getting snowed under with the worst disasters. So, yeah, all I want for Christmas is for this nightmare of a season to be over. But this year? Oh, I've really hit the Christmas tree topper. Ever since I plopped myself down on Santa's lap at my office party and made a special wish, it's been one yule disaster after another! And now, I'm stuck in this sleigh ride from hell with that red-suited nightmare, forced to follow him wherever he jingles. Sure, he might be a total angel under that fake beard-mysterious and all-but I'm not about to let myself get wrapped up like some Christmas present under the tree. My brain's still in one piece, thanks. So, seriously, sweet baby Jesus, how did a nice executive assistant like me end up sleighing through this wild holiday misadventure full of danger, romance, and all the holly jolly chaos of Christmas?!Terminé
