Quote:It hasn't been easy for Octavia. The jackass of an ex-husband has gone out of his way to make the year a struggle. From playing games with their daughter's heart, to not paying as promised, crying in the late night hours have become a new normal for her. With only 31 days left of the year, she'll be damned if her daughter's Christmas will be ruined. She knows it's going to take a miracle to end the year on a high note, but a wish on a star and nose to the grind, Octavia's going to make it happen.

When did the stranger next door move in? Octavia's been so consumed with keeping everything afloat, she didn't notice. Then again, there was no moving truck parked at the tiny cottage that had been vacant all year long. There wasn't the normal activity that went into new neighborhoods either. One day empty, the next occupied.and things only get weirder when her daughter tells her that the man next door is Santa Claus.

Across the picket-fenced yard, Bradly O' Hare has been self-absorbed on enjoying his time away from it all. When offered the tiny home away from home, he jumped at the opportunity for small-town life. He's gone out of his way to keep out of the faces of the nosy neighbors all trying to get a chance at meeting the new guy in town. It was going all as planned until the damn girl next door caught him trying on the costume for his next movie. Unable to break her heart, he said what any good-hearted man would say,

"I'm Santa Clause."

He knew from the way her eyes grew; that he had made a huge mistake. Now, her mother is knocking on his door. invading his dreams and has him very close to committing a few lustful acts that will have him on Santa's Naughty List for years to come.
