Even the worst blizzard in the history of Seattle couldn't stop love from blossoming. If anything, it helps it grow. During the middle of the biggest storm to ever hit Seattle in its entire history, the new stations advise everyone to stay indoors, and for business around the city to close down. However, before given the chance to leave for home, Tony's co-worker has his take out their last order at the little Italian restaurant. Poor little Tony, unable to say no, and kind of an introvert, takes the order to the client, with some help of his boss, who is perhaps too friendly. Derrick Mars, the CEO and President of Mars Sounds, one of the top recording companies and labels around, has ordered food from his favorite little Italian bistro, hoping that maybe the warm food will heat up his lonely holiday season. It's been a few years since he's had a meaningful relationship, which would probably explain why his company is thriving so well. But as it's getting closer to Christmas, he can't help but feel even lonelier, that is until he meets the new delivery boy. With the storm getting worse by the second, and the doors to the building now being completely blocked by a wall of snow and ice, Derrick makes the quick decision to let both the cute little Tony, and his handsy boss, stay in his penthouse condo. But, what will Tony do when his boss shows him too much attention, and the client isn't showing him enough attention? 2016 © David A Graham
