In the Hallmark Channel movie Christmas Next Door, handsome author Eric Redford (who writes about how to stay single) has his young niece and nephew for the holidays. He is not the kind of guy who decorates his house with snowmen or Santas. While he scrambles to entertain them, Eric receives help and gets a dose of Christmas spirit from his gorgeous (and single) neighbor April Stewart (Fiona Gubelmann).
