In Meghan Quinn’s “How My Neighbor Stole Christmas,” Cole Black, a Christmas-averse resident of Kringletown, plans to avoid the holiday festivities. His solitude is disrupted when Storee Taylor moves in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy and enters the town’s Christmas Kringle contest. Determined to outdo her, Cole joins the competition, feigning holiday spirit and a romantic interest in Storee. As their rivalry unfolds, their pretend relationship deepens into genuine affection, leading to unexpected romantic developments.
