Carrie is the next Mrs. Claus, and the son of Santa follows his family traditions to make her his. Only, tradition must break as Carrie's world gets lost to darkness.

Kris wants to take a slow, traditional approach with his future Mrs. Claus. Night riding in the sleigh. Drinking the elves cocoa. Distributing toys to good girls and boys as friends for a few years. His father though, isn't doing too well in the magic department, and Carrie's world loses the protection of Santa Claus.

Carrie is a sweet seventeen year old, who has known Kris only a little from his visits year to year. However, when he spits out the truth to her, running away to the North Pole isn't on her plans. As people in her world turn, and the season of merriment is no longer celebrated, will she have any choice in the matter?

Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus are gone. To give her world a fighting chance, can they both become the new Mr. and Mrs. Claus?

Saving Mrs. Claus

Mrs. Kringle and Mrs. Claus. He was still not being straight with her. He was trying to be polite and careful of her feelings, but she needed to understand. “What does that mean, Kris?” 


“It means that Mr. and Mrs. Claus must become more than partners.” Kris scooted back a little himself. “There won't be hundreds of years for us to get to know each other and ride around in the skies together. You eventually need to be Mrs. Kringle soon.” 


There was silence in the sleigh for a good five minutes. 


“The magic of Christmas, I hope it's enough,” Kris finally spoke. 


“It has to be enough.” Carrie couldn't do that. “I-I was dealing with the fact that I would have to leave my world for good if I take the role. This is too much, Kris.”
