I really enjoyed this marshmallow grump meets upbeat lover of Christmas.

It’s a mutual crush but Dean has so many locks on his heart - and oh man so heartbreaking to know he’s lived so many years unable to live for himself.

Echo is a warm, kind soul who manages to draw out the beautiful grump and help him live again (along with some meddling townfolk).

It’s a lovely Christmas story with plenty of Santa and Elfness.

I would say, Dean is sold as being in the closest - but it’s more like his celibate/closed off.
