CHRISTMAS IS COMING SO HERE HAVE A LONG LIST OF POSSIBLE CHRISTMAS PLOTS

However, in the process, she/he re-discovers her/his childhood best friend (Muse B) and starts to realise that perhaps her/his former fiance isn’t who she wants after all.
GUESS WHO’S COMING TO CHRISTMAS: Muse A is a jaded rock-star with a tarnished reputation for drink-driving and bad behaviour. Muse B is a small-town female/male who’s had to move back home after her/his engagement was called off, where her/his father is the local parish priest and doesn’t allow a single drop of alcohol in the house. To repair his damaged image, Muse A decides to fulfill a child’s ‘Dear Santa’ Christmas wish, which Muse B’s sibling enters and wins. Now, Muse A must spend the whole of December in a small, secluded town and perform in their local Christmas show, sleeping in Muse B’s spare room.
THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS: Muse A, a workaholic solicitor, has just twelve nights to get a bed and breakfast appraised, but the owner is uncooperative because he claims a spirit (Muse B) lives there and would not approve. As Muse A’s promotion rests on accomplishing this task, she decides to check in for the winter and haggles with Muse B, a spirit who is cursed to never move on until he/she solves their own murder. Muse A agrees to help.
A PRINCE FOR CHRISTMAS: Muse A escorts her/his niece and nephew to spend Christmas with their grandfather, an English Duke. Here she/he meets Muse B, a charming European prince who has travelled to America for an arranged marriage.

Vowing their love for one another, the pair put together a box of memories and buried it in the woods. The relationship, however, ended when he/she moved.

Muse B is bidding on the same house, starting a war between them, unaware that Muse B is, in fact, that someone special from his/her childhood.

In an attempt to keep themselves occupied, Muse B decides to take part in the Angel Tree scheme, picking Muse A’s name.

When this friend is later killed in battle, Muse A takes leave and decides to return their dog tags to a grieving widow. Here, he/she meets Muse B, who’s father hires Muse A to work for him. The pair begin to fall in love, unaware that Muse B was the original sender of the Christmas card that kept Muse A going throughout his/her time in war.
