Jim Garrett is reserved, kind, and harboring a bit of trauma from the year prior. Caroline Crabtree is fun-loving and the kind of girl you notice in the hallway. Caroline sparkles as she floats through a room on an imaginary breeze, holding Jim's heart on a string wherever she goes. Jim is wholly and irrevocably in love with her. He just has to talk to her first to make sure. This short story prequel to the Second Chance Series is the journey of how Jim and Caroline fell in love: late night phone calls, holiday traditions, and ditching class to kiss in the custodial closet.Complete![The Bad Boy I Met On Christmas Eve [✔]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/54080381-256-k899616.jpg)

The Christmas Chalet | ✓
Sophia Reymont's fondest memories are of her home, The Reymont Chalet, affectionately known as The Christmas Chalet. Since studying and finding a job in New York City, she's been spending her vacation time climbing the corporate ladder at a marketing agency. When her Aunt Greta calls asking for her help to keep the chalet from being sold, she jumps at the opportunity she's been waiting for-a chance to market something she believes in. Alexander Cavanagh has a successful business in Seattle as a real estate investor. He buys low-valued properties, converting them into his clients' dream offices and homes. He spots his next project quickly, and at a bargain, a cozy chalet in a tourist town in need of renovation. On an instinct, he takes a chance to move cross-country to the small town that can't help but draw him in, secondary only to the people he meets there. An unexpected and light romance brewing in the holiday atmosphere has both rethinking life, love, the meaning of home. [Cover Photo Credit]: Imad Clicks, Pexels A/N: Hello and thank you for checking out my cozy Christmas story! I've put a lot of love into this one but it's still my first draft. I'm hoping to go back and edit it one day. Still, it's always been about the characters for me and I hope you love them as they are! :)Complete

christmas eve
Winter was not the time for everyone. Especially not for Holly, who was snowed in her college building. To her bad luck, she had decided to leave for home on the twenty-first, unlike her friends, when a snowstorm had suddenly hit town. She had cursed mother nature's name. All she had wanted to do was get home as late as possible to shorten the time she would have to spend with her mom and stepdad... but now, she would never get to her destination in time. According to the news, the snowstorm would last days, the consequences might even weeks. And being the only one in her college building could become very lonely... but maybe she wouldn't be as alone as she had expected. To make everything better, Cade Thindal hadn't gotten his ride back home either. - 🥈Second place in the Carnival Awards 2021Complete

Be Home For Christmas ☑️ Re-writing
Christmas-it's the most wonderful time of the year. Who couldn't agree with that? Gathered together in front of the fireplace, drinking hot chocolate and embrace the warmth of each other presence, goofing around with the loved one, decorated the Christmas tree. Oh, what a wonderful time of the year. Everybody was busy preparing their trip to come home for Christmas, so did the Gables. The huge family of nine either live in different cities or busy with work. But that's not just it. Everything seemed to block them for coming home for Christmas. James once told that he would be the first home from his three other siblings. But his fate said otherwise. The twins had urgent project to finish. Alexander, well he was trying to have a little time for himself away from residency. Along the way, they created a history that would never be forgotten. The bad luck that hit James turned out to be a Christmas joy. The twins' urgent project was a great success and became the turning point for their band's career. Alexander experienced the wonder of nature that felt more like a winter wonderland. Long story short? An eventful journey to come home for Christmas.Complete
