Welcome to Litsy!

For months, Misha Conway has been telling himself that he just has to make it to the holiday season. His design business has been quiet all year, but in December, it always picks up - and this year, he really needs the money. Trouble is, they cut off his internet in November, so now he needs to spend all day in a coffee shop if he wants to get any work done. Shame about having to buy coffee to keep himself in business. He can barely afford it. Cue Stef Tucker. Stef is a barista with an optimistic mind and an eye for troubled souls. Seeing Misha struggle, he's kind enough to cover a few cups of coffee for him per day. At first, Misha feels inclined to point out that he's not gay - that if this is flirting, then it's not going to get anywhere. But the more time they spend together, the more Misha realizes that Stef just has a good heart... and that he might have spoken too soon when he said it'd never happen. Can Misha get himself together before Stef gives in and goes back to Jake, the pragmatic ex-boyfriend who canned him last Christmas? Can Stef's generosity hold out until Misha's standing back on his own two feet? Only one thing's for sure - baby, it's cold outside, and they're going to need to give it everything they've got to stay warm this Christmas.
