Unexpectedly, Santa (North) knocks on your door and offers to help you get your Christmas wonder back, as he does with chosen adults every year, by letting you help deliver Christmas this holiday season. You accept the offer. But as you get into Christmas preparation, you discover that delivering Christmas and getting your wonder back is going to be much harder than you thought.

A CHRISTMAS FAVOUR | H.S by honeyloverrr_
6 parts Ongoing Mature
| A SHORT STORY | Harry and Frankie have never been friends, they're acquaintances at best. Harry doesn't like how pristine and preppy she can be and Frankie isn't a fan of his womanising ways. It's safe to say that they don't get along. They try to put their differences aside for the sake of their closest friends who happen to be dating, and this means that they are forced to spend a lot of time together against their will. When Christmas starts to roll around and Frankie's boyfriend decides to do a runner, it leaves her with no choice but to ask for a favour from the one person that she dislikes the most. It's one thing to ask for help when you don't want to, but it's another to ask someone that would rather see you crash and burn than to give a helping hand out of the fire.

When workaholic lawyer Sarah Winters inherits her grandmother's beloved Christmas shop, there's a catch: she must run it through December or lose it to developers. The last thing she needs is to return to Pine Grove, where memories of the Christmas she ran away are as thick as the falling snow. Even worse? The shop's apartment is occupied by Jack Porter-her childhood best friend, current handyman, and the guy she kissed under the Christmas tree ten years ago before disappearing to law school. Now he's all grown up, infuriatingly handsome, and determined to protect her grandmother's legacy. When a town competition forces them to work together, old sparks reignite between strands of Christmas lights and cups of secret-recipe hot chocolate. But as Sarah uncovers family secrets in her grandmother's recipe book and Jack confronts his own holiday heartbreak, they must decide if some traditions are worth fighting for-and if love deserves a second chance under the mistletoe. A heartwarming holiday romance about finding your way home, healing old wounds, and discovering that sometimes the best Christmas presents can't be wrapped-only felt.

And if this all goes smoothly, you two will be able to get divorced before the hockey season ends." "I have the places where you both will sign," His eyes lifted and scanned both of us. "But only of course, if you both agree to this." "I'll do it," I said honestly. Minnow sighed outwardly and bit her bottom lip. "If you need more time-" "No," she swallowed, staring at the thick packet in front of us. "I feel like this goes without saying but...no sex. Of any kind. It only complicates things." My cheeks flushed with heat, probably turning pink and Minnow choked. "We won't..." I shook my head, clenching my jaw. Shivers crossed my back. "You don't have to worry about that," Minnow said obviously. "Trust me." ***************************************** Minnow Noel is known for two things: being a hot head and an amazing figure skater. Running from a dark relationship and a past version of herself, she ends up where her skating career all started. Norwegian native Søren Skejeggstad's only focus in life is hockey.

Christmas with Nick Klaas by rskovach
31 parts Complete
[2021 WATTYS Shortlist] When the heir to Christmas falls for a girl who hates the holiday, he risks losing his birthright to a trickster cousin unless he can melt her bah-humbug heart. * * * With his pet reindeer, grumpy gnome friends, and perpetual Yuletide cheer, Nick is the most eligible bachelor in the Arctic Circle. He's also the envy of his cousin Piet, who wants nothing more than to destroy the holiday forever. And how better to poison the heart of the most festive man in the reach of the aurora borealis than getting him to fall in love with woman who hates Christmas more than anyone else in the world? Noelle Nixon is "one of those" people. Everyone knows one: someone who lives for sun, surf, and palm trees, someone who'd rather be in perpetual vacation mode, and someone who'd gladly skip from Halloween directly to Easter rather than having to deal with the gloom, stress, and forced cheer of the "holiday season." When magical scheming during the winter equinox between a vengeful Black Buck and a clever Frost Fairy forces this New York City violinist to travel across the North Atlantic for a private holiday concert, the pure, unsuspecting Nick will risk losing his claim on Christmas in favor of his heart unless Noelle's one flaw is a deal breaker to what would otherwise be a perfect match.

"Shit- let me look at that....can you scoot over?" The apparition ignored my request. As my eyes adjusted, I knew I was dreaming. Or dying. This had to be a pre-death hallucination. "Man- if you got a phone you might wanna call an ambulance...cause I keep thinking you are my ex. So I know something's seriously wrong. " "Yeah. Me being here is indeed wrong. And your head's been impaired long before now. But let me see what damage you done this time. Scoot. If you can. Please." Michael? This story takes place in Ireland, December 2006. I am taking liberties with the timeline and events...as we know Michael left shortly before Lisa arrived in Ireland. Let's visit a parallel universe...Enjoy!
