How My Neighbor Stole Christmas is Meghan Quinn at her festive, chaotic best—an enemies-to-lovers holiday romcom filled with banter, charm, and a whole lot of Christmas competitiveness. Cole Black is the resident grump of Kringletown, a place where everyone is obsessed with the holidays… except him. He’s perfectly content to hide away for the season—until Storee Taylor moves in next door. Bubbly, determined, and full of holiday spirit, Storee is everything Cole can’t stand. But when she enters the town’s beloved Christmas Kringle contest, Cole’s irritation turns into motivation: if she wants the title so badly, he’ll just have to take her down himself.
The rivalry between Cole and Storee is hilarious and electric. Their constant one-upping, snarky exchanges, and escalating antics make the story move with irresistible energy. But beneath the sarcasm and sabotage, something warmer starts to spark. Their fake-but-not-really relationship begins as a strategy to win over the town—but it quickly becomes clear that Cole’s grinchy exterior is hiding a much softer heart, and Storee’s sunshine personality is exactly the light he didn’t know he needed. Their chemistry grows naturally through misunderstandings, reluctant teamwork, and moments of unexpected tenderness that sneak up on both of them.
Meghan Quinn wraps all the humor and heat in a story that’s ultimately about hope, community, and letting people in. With a quirky small town, a spirited contest, heartfelt moments with Aunt Cindy, and a romance that melts even the frostiest hearts, How My Neighbor Stole Christmas delivers everything a holiday romcom should: laughter, love, and a whole lot of Christmas magic. It’s festive, funny, and full of heart—perfect for readers who like their holiday stories with equal measures of spice and sweetness.
