The holidays can be a special time, filled with unexpected magic. Coal Roper is a queen and wears it boldly. Unfortunately, openly expressing himself does not come without some dangers. As not only the economics professor, but the drama production manager, he interacts with plenty of people, not all of them friendly. When a group of students begins to harass him, most of the staff turns a blind eye...all except one. Hank Parsons is a huge hulk of a man who teaches health classes, sports medicine, and acts as the wrestling coach. He's just the kind of man Coal normally stays well clear of. When the man keeps popping up at odd times to help him, Coal isn't certain what to make of the man...until the incident with the mistletoe. Can a little holiday magic help Coal look past the fears from his upbringing?
