A Working-Class Holiday Romance

Former soldier Noah Briggs doesn’t do Christmas. Not the music, not the lights, not the memories that hit too hard. He keeps his head down as the maintenance guy at the Maplewood Community Center—fixing what’s broken, avoiding what hurts.

Then Jamie Rivera arrives: the new volunteer coordinator with a scatter of freckles, an overworked clipboard, and enough Christmas spirit to power the entire town. When the center’s annual Christmas Eve dinner falls into chaos, Noah is assigned to help him pull it off.

They clash. They flirt. They rebuild the event one stubborn, late night at a time.

But when a heater fails the night before the dinner, forcing them to stay after hours to fix it, the quiet tension between them becomes impossible to ignore. In the amber glow of string lights, with snow tapping at the windows, walls come down—and something tender slips through.

After the dinner, when the guests have gone and the building has gone still, they share leftovers at a folding table. One hand brushes another. A breathless moment hangs between them.

“Stay?” Jamie asks, soft as a gift.

For the first time in years, Noah thinks he might actually want Christmas—if it means waking up to someone who feels like home.

A slow-burn, working-class holiday romance about warmth, second chances, and the quiet magic of being seen.
